What is Material Development and Physical Properties of BiS2-Based Layered Compounds about?

In 2012, we discovered superconductivity in Bi4O4S3 and LaO1-xFxBiS2, whose crystal structures are composed of alternate stacks of a BiS2-type conduction layer and a blocking layer. Since the discovery, many related superconductors and functional materials have been synthesized. Furthermore, the possibility of unconventional superconductivity has been proposed in recent theoretical and experimental studies. In addition, notable correlations between local structure and physical properties have been revealed in the BiS2-based systems. In this review article, we summarize the material development (probably all the compounds) and physical properties of BiS2-related materials developed in the last six years. The key parameters for the emergence of bulk superconductivity in the BiS2-based compounds are carrier doping to the parent phase (band insulator), pressure-induced structural transition, in-plane chemical pressure, and the suppression of in-plane disorder. We systematically review those parameters and the method of designing new superconductors with BiS2 layers. In addition, studies of BiS2-based compounds as thermoelectric materials are briefly reviewed.
