Conventional superconductivity in single-crystalline BiPt

Binary Bi-Pd/Pt systems have attracted a lot of interest because of their topologically nontrivial nature along with superconductivity. We report the structural and superconducting properties of high-quality single-crystalline BiPt using a comprehensive range of experimental techniques, including X-ray diffraction, electron microscopy, muon spin rotation/relaxation (𝜇⁢SR), magnetization, resistivity, and heat capacity. Our findings establish that BiPt is a weak type-II superconductor with a transition temperature (𝑇 𝑐 ) of 1.2 K which exhibits pronounced anisotropic superconducting characteristics attributed to its hexagonal crystal structure. Magnetization and electronic transport studies reveal that BiPt lies within the dirty limit, while 𝜇⁢SR and heat capacity data indicate conventional 𝑠-wave superconductivity that maintains time-reversal symmetry. Here, this work provides valuable insights into the pairing symmetry and superconducting mechanism of topologically trivial BiPt, a sound comparison system for other Bi-based topologically nontrivial superconductors.
