Superconductivity in S-substituted FeTe

We synthesized a superconducting system of ${\text{FeTe}}_{1-x}{\text{S}}_x$ with a PbO-type structure. It has the simplest crystal structure among iron-based superconductors. The superconducting transition temperature is about 10 K when $x$ is 0.2. The upper critical field $B_{c2}\left(0\right)$ was estimated to be ~70 T. The coherent length was calculated to be ~2.2 nm. Since ${\text{FeTe}}_{1-x}{\text{S}}_x$ is composed of nontoxic elements, this material is a candidate for applications that will further advance research on iron-based superconductors.
