text: Although crystals of strongly correlated metals exhibit a diverse set of electronic
ground states, few approaches exist for spatially modulating their properties.
In this study, we demonstrate disorder-free control, on the micrometer scale,
over the superconducting state in samples of the heavy-fermion superconductor
CeIrIn5. We pattern crystals by focused ion beam milling to tailor the boundary
conditions for the elastic deformation upon thermal contraction during cooling.
The resulting nonuniform strain fields induce complex patterns of superconductivity,
owing to the strong dependence of the transition temperature on the strength and
direction of strain. These results showcase a generic approach to manipulating
electronic order on micrometer length scales in strongly correlated matter without
compromising the cleanliness, stoichiometry, or mean free path.
