Abstract
A rise in the superconducting critical temperature of more than two times (exceeding 20 K) is discovered in point contacts created between iron chalcogenide FeSe single crystals and Cu. The possible reasons for such a increase in point contacts are discussed. The most likely cause for this may be the interfacial carrier doping and/or interfacial enhanced electron-phonon interaction.
