Using Indium on Si(111) as an atomically thin superconductor platform, and bysystematically controlling the density of nano-hole defects (nanometer sizevoids), we reveal the impacts of defects density and defects geometricarrangements on superconductivity at macroscopic and microscopic length scales.When nano-hole defects are uniformly dispersed in the atomic layer, thesuperfluid density monotonically decreases as a function of defect density(from 0.7% to 5% of the surface area) with minor change in the transitiontemperature Tc, measured both microscopically and macroscopically. With aslight increase in the defect density from 5% to 6%, these point defects areorganized into defect chains that enclose individual two-dimensional patches.This new geometric arrangement of defects dramatically impacts thesuperconductivity, leading to the total disappearance of macroscopic superfluiddensity and the collapse of the microscopic superconducting gap. This studysheds new light on the understanding of how local defects and their geometricarrangement impact superconductivity in the two-dimensional limit.
