Ever since the discovery of the charge density wave (CDW) transition in the kagome metal C s V 3⁢ S b 5, the nature of its symmetry breaking has been under intense debate. While evidence suggests that the rotational symmetry is already broken at the CDW transition temperature ( ), an additional electronic nematic instability well below has been reported based on the diverging elastoresistivity coefficient in the anisotropic channel ( ). Verifying the existence of a nematic transition below is not only critical for establishing the correct description of the CDW order parameter, but also important for understanding low-temperature superconductivity. Here, we report elastoresistivity measurements of using three different techniques probing both isotropic and anisotropic symmetry channels. Contrary to previous reports, we find the anisotropic elastoresistivity coefficient is temperature independent, except for a step jump at. The absence of nematic fluctuations is further substantiated by measurements of the elastocaloric effect, which show no enhancement associated with nematic susceptibility. On the other hand, the symmetric elastoresistivity coefficient increases below, reaching a peak value of 90 at. Our results strongly indicate that the phase transition at is not nematic in nature and the previously reported diverging elastoresistivity is due to the contamination from the channel.

P ⁢ d 3⁢ B ⁢ i 2⁢ S ⁢ e 2is a rare realization of a superconducting metal with a nonzero Z 2topological invariant. Here, we report the growth of high-quality single crystals of layered with a superconducting transition at 0.80 K and upper critical fields of ∼10 and ∼5 mT for the in-plane and out-of-plane directions, respectively. Our density-functional theory (DFT) calculations reveal three pairs of doubly degenerate bands crossing the Fermi level, all displaying clear three-dimensional dispersion consistent with the overall low electronic anisotropy (<2). The multiband electronic nature of is evident in magnetotransport measurements, yielding a sign-changing Hall resistivity at low temperatures. The magnetoresistance is nonsaturating and follows Kohler's scaling rule. We interpret the magnetotransport data in terms of open orbits that are revealed in the DFT-calculated Fermi surface. de Haas–van Alphen (dHvA) oscillation measurements using torque magnetometry on single crystals yield four frequencies for out-of-plane fields:, and, with the low frequency dominating the spectrum. Through the measurement of angular-dependent dHvA oscillations and DFT calculations we identify the frequency with an approximately ellipsoidal electron pocket centered on the point of the Brillouin zone. Lifshitz-Kosevich analysis of the dHvA oscillations reveals a small cyclotron effective mass and a nontrivial Berry phase for the dominant orbit. The presence of nontrivial topology in a bulk superconductor positions as a potential candidate for exploring topological superconductivity.
