We have synthesized a new superconductor ZnN y Ni 3 with T c ~3 K. The crystal structure has the same anti-perovskite-type such as MgCNi 3 and CdCNi 3. As far as we know, this is the third superconducting material in Ni-based anti-perovskite series. For this material, superconducting parameters, lower critical field H c1 (0), upper critical field H c2 (0), coherence length ξ(0), penetration depth λ(0), and Gintzburg -Landau parameter κ(0) have been experimentally determined.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
