Abstract
Antimony (Sb) Substitution less than 10 % is examined on a single crystal of a layered superconductor NdO0.7F0.3BiS2. Superconducting transition temperature of the substituted samples decreases with increasing Sb concentration. A lattice constant along the c axis showed a large decrease compared with that along the a axis. Since in-plane chemical pressure monotonically decreases with increasing Sb concentration, the suppression of the superconductivity is well described in terms of the decrease in in-plane chemical pressure.
