Magnesium dihydride ($\mgh$) stores 7.7 weight % hydrogen, but it suffers from a high thermodynamic stability and slow (de)hydrogenation kinetics. Alloying Mg with lightweight transition metals (TM = Sc, Ti, V, Cr) aims at improving the…

In this work, global search for crystal structures of ternary Mg-Sc-H hydrides (Mg$_x$Sc$_y$H$_z$) under high pressure ($100 \le P \le 200$ GPa) were performed using the evolutionary algorithm and first-principles calculations. Based on…

Evolutionary algorithms and the particle swarm optimization method have been used to predict stable and metastable high hydrides of iron between 150-300 GPa that have not been discussed in previous studies. Cmca FeH5, Pmma FeH6 and P2/c…

Understanding the high-pressure behavior of C-H system is of great importance due to its key role in organic, bio-, petroleum and planetary chemistry. We have performed a systematic investigation of the pressure-composition phase diagram of…

The low-pressure stabilization of superconducting hydrides with high critical temperatures ($T_c$s) remains a significant challenge, and experimentally verified superconducting hydrides are generally constrained to a limited number of…

Motivated by recent discovery of yttrium-based high-temperature ternary superconducting hydrides (e.g., CaYH$_{12}$, LaYH$_{12}$, and ScYH$_{6}$), we have employed evolutionary algorithm and first-principles calculations to comprehensively…

High pressure structures, phase diagram and superconductivity of polonium hydrides have been systematically investigated through the first-principles calculations based on the density functional theory. With the increasing pressure, several…

The stability of MgH$_2$ has been studied up to 20~GPa using density-functional total-energy calculations. At ambient pressure $\alpha$-MgH${_2}$ takes a TiO$_2$-rutile-type structure. $\alpha$-MgH$_2$ is predicted to transform into…

Using ab initio evolutionary simulations, we explore all the possible stoichiometries for Mg-O system at pressures up to 850 GPa. In addition to MgO, our calculations find that two extraordinary compounds MgO2 and Mg3O2 become…

The structures of compressed rubidium polyhydrides, RbHn with n>1, and their evolution under pressure are studied using density functional theory calculations. These phases, which start to stabilize at only P=2 GPa, consist of Rb+ cations…

Fe, Mg, and O are among the most abundant elements in terrestrial planets. While the behavior of the Fe-O, Mg-O, and Fe-Mg binary systems under pressure have been investigated, there are still very few studies of the Fe-Mg-O ternary system…

Evolutionary structure searches predict three new phases of iodine polyhydrides stable under pressure. Insulating P1-H5I, consisting of zigzag chains of HI (delta+)and H2(delta-) molecules, is stable between 30-90 GPa. Cmcm-H2I and…

The energy landscape of Mg(BH4)2 under pressure is explored by ab initio evolutionary calculations. Two new tetragonal structures, with space groups P-4 and I41/acd are predicted to be lower in enthalpy, by 15.4 kJ/mol and 21.2 kJ/mol,…

Binary hydrides formed by the pnictogens of phosphorus, arsenic and antimony are studied at high pressures using first principles methods. Stable structures are predicted and their electronic, vibrational and superconducting properties are…

Evolutionary structure searches are used to predict a new class of compounds in the lithium--rich region of the lithium/hydrogen phase diagram under pressure. First principles computations show that LimH, 4<m<9, are stabilized with respect…

The first-principle method of mathematical modeling was used to calculate the structural, electronic, phonon, and other characteristics of the normal metallic phase of hydrogen at a pressure of 500 GPa. It has been shown that metal hydrogen…

Solid hydrogen sulfide is well known as a typical molecular crystal but its stability under pressure is still under debate. Particularly, Eremets et al. found the high pressure superconductivity with $T_{c}\approx$ 190 K in a H$_{2}$S…

We have used diffusion Monte Carlo (DMC) calculations to study the structural properties of magnesium hydride (MgH$_2$), including the pressure-volume equation of state, the cohesive energy and the enthalpy of formation from magnesium bulk…

Samarium hydrides, belonging to the broad class of lanthanide polyhydrides, have yet to be experimentally tested at high pressure. In this study, we use random structure searches to explore multiple possible stoichiometries and propose…

Mg$_2$IrH$_6$ is a metastable complex metal hydride with a predicted superconducting transition temperature as high as 170 K at ambient pressure. Following the synthesis of isomorphic, insulating Mg$_2$IrH$_5$ at low pressure,…
