Abstract

We report the growth of heavily electron doped Li-NH3 intercalated FeSe single crystals that are free of material complexities and allow access to the intrinsic superconducting properties. Lix(NH3)yFe2Se2 single crystals show extremely large electronic anisotropy in both normal and superconducting states. They also exhibit anomalous transport properties in the normal state, which are believed to possibly be related to the anisotropy of relaxation time and/or temperature-dependent electron carrier concentration. Taking into account the great chemical flexibility of intercalants in the system, our findings provide a platform to understanding the origin of superconductivity in FeSe-related superconductors.
