Hydrogen and hydrides materials have long been considered promising materials for high-temperature superconductivity. But the extreme pressures required for the metallization of hydrogen-based superconductors limit their applications. Here,…
We suggest a new family of Co/Ni-based materials that may host unconventional high temperature superconductivity (high-T$_c$). These materials carry layered square lattices with each layer being formed by vertex-shared transition metal…
We report that four properties of cuprates and their evolution with doping are consequences of simply counting four-site plaquettes arising from doping: (1) the universal Tc phase diagram (superconductivity between \approx0.05 and…
Previous theoretical studies on superconductivity were focused on the static states and adiabatic processes. Quantum mechanics simulations of time-dependent processes in superconductors were rarely performed previously. Here we use…
Band structure trends in hole-doped cuprates and correlations with T_c are interpreted within the s--d exchange mechanism of high-T_c superconductivity. The dependence of T_c on the position of the copper 4s level finds a natural…
With the help of the McMillan formula and virtual crystal model, we predict $T_c$ may exceed 34 K in a beryllium-based alloy with a specific composition, reminiscent of $T_c$ = 35 K in the first cuprate superconductor. This may similarly…
A model is proposed such that quasi-particles (electrons or holes) residing in the CuO2 planes of cuprates may interact leading to metallic or superconducting behaviors. The metallic phase is obtained when the quasi-particles are treated as…
Conduction in bulk polycrystalline high-T$_c$ superconductors with relatively high critical currents has been shown to be percolative. This phenomenon is due to weak links at grain boundaries. These weak links are the major limiting factor…
Superconductivity has recently been discovered in Pr$_{2}$Ba$_{4}$Cu$_{7}$O$_{15-\delta}$ with a maximum $T_c$ of about 15K. Since the CuO planes in this material are believed to be insulating, it has been proposed that the…

The recent discovery of high-temperature superconductivity in the bilayer nickelate La$_3$Ni$_2$O$_7$ has spurred intense interest in exploring analogous mechanisms in other transition metal oxides. This raises a pivotal question: can…
We elucidate a recently emergent framework in unifying the two families of high temperature (high $T_c$) superconductors, cuprates and iron-based superconductors. The unification suggests that the latter is simply the counterpart of the…
$YBaCuO-Ag$ pressure point contacts with direct conduction are investigated. The excess (relative to the normal state) conductivity mainly caused by fluctuational pairing of electrons above $T_c$ is measured in the temperature interval…

The segregation of oxygen in the high critical temperature cuprate superconductor $La_2CuO_{4+y}$ has been systematically studied along the years. In a recent set of experiments, Poccia et al related, for the first time, time ordering ($t$)…
Two correlated superconducting phases are identified in layered superconductor BaTi2(Sb1-xBix)2O (x=0.16), with the superconducting transition temperatures of TC = 6 K (the high TC phase) and 3.4 K (the low TC Phase), respectively. The 6 K…
CaLi2, a member of the Z =8.67 family, with Ne =1.333 is superconducting at 14K at 40 GPA pressure. Through computational combinatorial synthesis of the Z =4.67 and Z=12.67 families, we create new members of the Z =8.67 family. We discover…
In this paper we address the question of whether high-temperature superconductors have anything in common with BCS-BEC crossover theory. Towards this goal, we present a proposal and related predictions which provide a concrete test for the…
