Superconducting and normal state properties of high entropy alloy Nb-Re-Hf-Zr-Tiinvestigated by muon spin relaxation and rotation

Superconducting high entropy alloy (HEA) are emerging as a new class of superconducting materials. It provides a unique opportunity to understand the complex interplay of disorder and superconductivity. We report the synthesis and detail bulk and microscopic characterization of Nb\(_{60}\)Re\(_{10}\)Zr\(_{10}\)Hf\(_{10}\)Ti\(_{10}\) HEA alloy using transport, magnetization, specific heat, and muon spin rotation/relaxation (\(\mu\)SR) measurements. Bulk superconductivity with transition temperature \(T_{C}\) = 5.7 K confirmed by magnetization, resistivity, and heat capacity measurements. Zero-field \(\mu\)SR measurement shows that the superconducting state preserves time-reversal symmetry, and transverse-field measurements of the superfluid density are well described by an isotropic s-wave model.
