Abstract

Abstract We investigate the external hydrostatic pressure effect on the superconducting transition temperature ( T c ) of new layered superconductors Bi 4 O 4 S 3 and NdO 0.5 F 0.5 BiS 2 . Though the T c is found to have a moderate decrease from 4.8 K to 4.3 K (d T c onset /d P = –0.28 K/GPa) for Bi 4 O 4 S 3 superconductor, the same increases from 4.6 K to 5 K (d T c onset /d P = 0.44 K/GPa) up to 1.31 GPa followed by a sudden decrease from 5 K to 4.7 K up to 1.75 GPa for NdO 0.5 F 0.5 BiS 2 superconductor. The variation of T c in these systems may be correlated to an increase or decrease of the charge carriers in the density of states under externally applied pressure.
