The recent report of near-ambient conditions superconductivity in a nitrogen-doped lutetium hydride has inspired a large number of experimental studies with contradictory results. We model from first principles the physical properties of…

The electronic structure, Fermi surface and elastic properties of the iso-structural and iso-electronic LaSn$_3$ and YSn$_3$ intermetallic compounds are studied under pressure within the framework of density functional theory including…

We present a combined theoretical and experimental study of the electronic structure and equation of state (EOS) of crystalline PdN2. The compound forms above 58 GPa in the pyrite structure and is metastable down to 11 GPa. We show that the…

Following the idea that hydrogen-rich compounds might be high-T$_c$ superconductors at high pressures, and the very recent breakthrough in predicting and synthesizing hydrogen sulfide with record-high T$_c$ = 203 K, ab initio evolutionary…

The discovery of ambient superconductivity would mark an epochal breakthrough long-awaited for over a century, potentially ushering in unprecedented scientific and technological advancements. The recent findings on high-temperature…

Motivated by the recent observation of superconductivity with $T_c \sim 80$ K in pressurized La3Ni2O7 [Nature 621, 493 (2023)], we explore the structural and electronic properties in A3Ni2O7 bilayer nickelates (A=La-Lu, Y, Sc) as a function…

We present our findings of a large-scale screening for new synthesizable materials in five M-Sn binaries, M = Na, Ca, Cu, Pd, and Ag. The focus on these systems was motivated by the known richness of M-Sn properties with potential…

By means of molecular dynamics simulations based on the Billeter et al. [S. R. Billeter, A. Curioni, D. Fischer, and W. Andreoni, Phys. Rev. B {\bf 73}, 155329] environment-dependent classical force field we studied the structural features…

In situ high-pressure energy dispersive x-ray diffraction experiments on polycrystalline powder TiN with NaCl-type structure have been conducted with the pressure up to 30.1 GPa by using the diamond anvil cell instrument with synchrotron…

Transition metal phosphorous trichalcogenides, $M{\rm P}X_3$ ($M$ and $X$ being transition metal and chalcogen elements respectively), have been the focus of substantial interest recently because of their possible magnetism in the…

Layered nickelates are believed to exhibit superconductivity similar to that found in the cuprates. However, the precise crystal structure of the superconducting phase of the layered nickelates has not been fully clarified. Here, I use…

First principles electronic structure calculations of A-15 type Nb$_3$X (X = Al, Ga, In, Ge and Sn) compounds are performed at ambient and high pressures. Mechanical stability is confirmed in all the compounds both at ambient as well as…

Novel superhard materials, especially those with superior thermal and chemical stability, are needed to replace diamond. Carbon nitrides (C-N), which are likely to possess these charac- teristics and have even been expected to be harder…

We report on investigations of phonons and lithium diffusion in LiAlO$_2$ based on inelastic neutron scattering (INS) measurements of the phonon density of states (DOS) in {\gamma}-LiAlO$_2$ from 473 K to 1073 K, complemented with ab-initio…

We report on the synthesis of new nitride-based compound by using annealing of AlN heteroepitaxial layers under a Si-atmosphere at temperatures between 1350$^\circ$C and 1550$^\circ$C. The structure and stoichiometry of this compound are…

We report a characterization of the high-pressure behavior of zinc-iodate, Zn(IO3)2. By the combination of x-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, and first-principles calculations we have found evidence of two subtle isosymmetric structural…

We present a new method to synthesize bulk indium nitride by means of a simple solid-state chemical reaction carried out under hydrostatic high pressure/high temperature conditions in a multi-anvil apparatus, not involving gases or solvents…

We have used density-functional-theory methods and the ab initio random structure searching (AIRSS) approach to predict stable structures and stoichiometries of mixtures of iron and oxygen at high pressures. Searching was performed for 12…

Three new novel phases of carbon nitride (CN) bilayer, which are named as \alpha-C$_{2}$N$_{2}$, \beta-C$_{2}$N$_{2}$ and \gamma-C$_{4}$N$_{4}$, respectively, have been predicted in this paper. All of them are consisted of two CN sheets…

In the last decade, there has been great progress in predicting and synthesizing polyhydrides that exhibit superconductivity when squeezed. Dopants allow these compounds to become metals at pressures lower than those required to metallize…
