Discovery of superconductivity in Nb4 SiSb2 with a V4 SiSb2 -type structure and implications of interstitial doping on its physical properties

We report on the discovery of Nb 4 SiSb 2 . This compound is a new superconductor with a T c of 1.6 K. The channel void positions of this phase can be partly filled with Cu, Pd, or Pt, which leads to a lowering of the transition temperature.
