Description

The study of overdoped FeTe1-xSex (0.5 < x < 1) polycrystalline superconductor samples is reported. The samples were prepared using a melting technique previously developed by our group. Increasing the Se content a phase separation related to the formation of FeSe inside the Fe(Se,Te) phase happens, as demonstrated by structural analysis and magnetic characterization. The proposed phase separation picture is likely the fingerprint of a miscibility gap in the Fe(Se,Te) system. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
