Kriener M, Sakano M, Kamitani M, Bahramy MS, Yukawa R, Horiba K, Kumigashira H, Ishizaka K, Tokura Y, Taguchi Y.
PMID: 32058775
Phys Rev Lett. 2020 Jan 31;124(4):047002. doi: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.124.047002.

GeTe is a chemically simple IV-VI semiconductor which bears a rich plethora of different physical properties induced by doping and external stimuli. Here, we report a superconductor-semiconductor-superconductor transition controlled by finely-tuned In doping. Our results reveal the existence of...
