Boron-rich lithium borocarbides are promising candidates for phonon-mediated high-temperature superconductors due to their metallic $\sigma$-bonding electrons. Here, we use the cluster expansion method to identify energetically stable…
The recently synthesized $\eta$-carbide-type superconductors exhibit large critical fields. A notable example is Ti$_4$Ir$_2$O, for which the upper critical field strongly violates the Pauli paramagnetic limit, behavior that is unusual for…

We are proposing, as an ideal candidate for caloritronic devices operating at subKelvin temperatures, a hybrid superconductor-semiconductor platform named InAs on insulator (InAsOI). This heterostructure is made by doped InAs grown on an…
J. E. Hirsch and F. Marsiglio in their publication, Phys. Rev. B 103, 134505 (2021), assert that hydrogen-rich compounds do not exhibit superconductivity. Their argument hinges on the absence of broadening of superconducting transitions in…
