FeSe is unique as an iron-based superconductor due to its simple structure, and lack of magnetic order at ambient pressure, which offers an opportunity to disentangle the interplay of structural, magnetic and orbital degrees of freedom. Additionally, this material undergoes a structural phase transition at Ts ∼ 90 K, in which the lattice changes symmetry from tetragonal to orthorhombic. Uniaxial stress is a conjugate field to this transition, and therefore one naively expects an increase in the transition temperature and a broadening of the transition under uniaxial stress. We observe an unexpected suppression of Ts under both compressive and tensile stress, as well as a dramatic broadening of the transition. We discuss these results in the context of orbital-selective physics.
