Article Description

Nonmagnetic-impurity effect is studies in a canonical two-gap superconductor Lu 2 Fe 3 Si 5 by means of specific heat measurements. In contrast to the case of single-band s -wave superconductor, only 2% substitution of nonmagnetic Sc for Lu resulted in 30% reduction of Tc in agreement with previous studies on polycrystalline samples. Two-gap fit to the specific heat data shows that both the large and small gaps are suppressed in contrast to a theoretical prediction where the small gap is enhanced with the expense of suppression of the large gap.
