We have applied ab initio molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to study metal-metal coupling on the alkali-metal sublattice in the {\beta}-pyrochlore osmates, AOs2O6 (A = K, Rb, Cs) at 300 K. We find that the alkali-metal atoms (rattlers)…
Chemical trends of fundamental superconducting parameters and normal-state properties are described for a family of pyrochlore oxide superconductors. Particularly, the change of Tc from 1.0 K for alpha-pyrochlore Cd2Re2O7 to 3.3 K (A = Cs),…
