Abstract
The 5d transition metal oxide Sr2IrO4 has attracted much interest in the high-temperature superconductivity community since it highly resembles the cuprate superconductor in crystal and electronic structures. Here, we report on the transport and magnetic properties of Zn-doped Sr2IrO4. It is found that the energy gap of Sr2IrO4 is rapidly decreased with a small amount of Zn doping. Consequently, the electrical conductivity is significantly enhanced. The present work could serve as the prerequisite stage in exploring the possible superconductivity of the Sr2IrO4 compound.
