We report protonation in several compounds by an ionic-liquid-gating method, under optimized gating conditions. This leads to single superconducting phases for several compounds. Non-volatility of protons allows post-gating magnetization and transport measurements. The superconducting transition temperature T-c is enhanced to 43.5K for FeSe0.93S0.07, and 41K for FeSe after protonation. Superconducting transitions with T-c similar to 15K for ZrNCl, similar to 7.2K for 1T-TaS2, and similar to 3.8K for Bi2Se3 are induced after protonation. Electric transport in protonated FeSe0.93S0.07 confirms high-temperature superconductivity. Our H-1 nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) measurements on protonated FeSe1-xSx reveal enhanced spin-lattice relaxation rate 1/T-1(1) with increasing x, which is consistent with the LDA calculations that H+ is located in the interstitial sites close to the anions.
