Abstract

Nonbulk superconductivity with a pressure-dependent signal size has been detected but only between 2 and 43 kbar in ${Eu}_{1.2}$ ${Mo}_{6}$ $S_{8}$ quasihydrostatically. The results not only shed light on the occurrence of superconductivity in this compound but also provide insight to the nature of the superconductivity observed.
