Fig. 2

Temperature dependence of specific heat under different magnetic fields below 6 K for a Sc2Ir3.7Si0.3, b, Sc2Ir3.5Si0.5. Sharp superconducting transitions can be seen here at 0 T. And when applying magnetic fields, the superconducting transition shifts to lower temperatures and smears out. At 6 T and 9T, they entered the unconventional ground state with an increasing trend below 1 K. Insets show the enlarged view of C/T versus lnT. It can be fitted well with the linear relationship below 1 K.
