Superconducting iron chalcogenide FeSe has the simplest crystal structure among all the Fe‐based superconductors. Unlike other iron pnictides, FeSe exhibits no long‐range magnetic order accompanying the tetragonal‐to‐orthorhombic structural distortion, which raises the fundamental question about the role of magnetism and its associated spin fluctuations in mediating both nematicity and superconductivity. The extreme sensitivity of FeSe to external pressure suggests that chemical pressure, induced by substitution of Se by the smaller ion S, could also a be good tuning parameter to further study the coupling between superconductivity and nematicity and to obtain information on both the Fermi‐surface changes and the symmetry of the superconducting state. Here, we study the thermodynamic properties of Fe(   Se   1  −  xS  x   ) for three compositions,   x  =  0  , 0.08, and 0.15, using heat‐capacity and thermal‐expansion measurements. With increasing S content, we observe a significant reduction of the tetragonal‐to‐orthorhombic transition temperature    T  s   . However, this suppression of    T  s    is counterintuitively accompanied by an enhancement of the orthorhombic distortion   δ   below    T  c   , which clearly indicates that superconductivity favors the nematic state. In parallel, the superconducting transition temperature    T  c    is sizeably enhanced, whereas the increase of the Sommerfeld coefficient    γ  n    is quite moderate. In the   T  →  0   limit, an unusually large residual density of states is found for   x  >  0   indicative of significant substitution‐induced disorder. We discuss these observations in the context of “  s  +  d  ” superconducting‐state symmetry.
