Abstract

We report the temperature dependence of resistivity, DC magnetic susceptibility and heat capacity for the noncentrosymmetric superconductor CaIrSi₃. The bulk superconducting transition temperature T _c is about 3.0 K. The upper critical field H_c2 estimated from the H-T phase diagram is 0.44 T, yielding a superconducting coherence length: ξ(0) = 27 nm. The heat capacity exhibits a clear jump at T _c indicating bulk superconductivity and is well described within the BCS framework.
