\begin{document}$\sqrt 2 \times \sqrt 2 R{45^ \circ }$\end{document} reconstructed structure. The superconducting behavior of the PbBi3 phase is characterized using variable-temperature STS spectra. We obtain that the superconducting transition temperature of PbBi3 is about 6.13 K, and the \begin{document}$2\varDelta (0)/{k_{\text{B}}}{T_{\text{c}}}$\end{document} ratio is about 4.62 using the fitting parameter of \begin{document}$\varDelta (0) = 1.22{\text{ meV}}$\end{document} at 0 K. By measuring the magnetic field dependent superconducting coherence length, the critical field is estimated at larger than 0.92 T. We further investigate the superconducting proximity effect in the normal metal-superconductor (N-S) heterojunction consisting of the non-superconducting Bi(110) domain and the superconducting PbBi3 domain. The N-S heterojunctions with both in-plane configuration and step-like configuration are measured, which suggest that the atomic connection and the area of the quasi-2D Josephson junctions and the external magnetic field can affect the lateral superconducting penetration length. We also observe the zero-bias conductance peaks (ZBCPs) in the superconducting gap of the PbBi3 surface in some cases at zero magnetic field. By measuring dI/dV spectra at various temperatures and by adopting a superconducting Nb tip, we identify that the ZBCP originates from the superconductor-insulator-superconductor (S-I-S) junction formed between a superconducting tip and the sample. Nevertheless, the Bi(110)-based PbBi3 phase may provide a possible platform to explore the intriguing topological superconducting behaviors at the vortexes under magnetic fields, or in the vicinity of the potentially topological superconducting Bi(110) islands by considering the proximity effect."> Structural and superconducting properties of low-temperature ultrathin PbBi<sub>3</sub> films - 必威体育下载
