Dias and Silvera (Letters, p. 715, 2017) claim the observation of the Wigner-Huntington transition to metallic hydrogen at 495 GPa. We show that neither the claims of the record pressure or the phase transition to a metallic state are…
In their recent work Dias and Silvera (Science 2017) claim to have observed the Wigner-Huntington transition of hydrogen to a metallic state (MH) at a pressure of 495 GPa at low temperatures. The evidence for this transition is based on a…
In a recently published article [1], Ranga P. Dias & Isaac F. Silvera have reported the visual evidence of metallic hydrogen concomitantly with its characterization at a pressure of 495 GPa and low temperatures. We have expressed serious…
We reported the first observation of metallic hydrogen (MH) in the low temperature limit at a pressure of ~495 GPa in an article published in Science (1). This transition was first predicted by Wigner and Huntington (WE) over 80 years ago…
Eremets and Troyan recently reported a transition of molecular hydrogen to metallic hydrogen (MH) at a pressure of ~270 GPa and 300 K. The quest for MH has been going on since 1935 when Wigner and Huntington predicted solid H2 at 0 K would…
Molecular hydrogen was pressurized in a diamond anvil cell at temperatures between 5 and 83 K. At a sufficiently high pressure, estimated to be between 477 to 491 GPa, hydrogen became metallic, determined by its reflectance in the near…
Hydrogen has been the essential element in the development of atomic and molecular physics1). Moving to the properties of dense hydrogen has appeared a good deal more complex than originally thought by Wigner and Hungtinton in their seminal…
We investigate the optical properties of hydrogen as it undergoes a transition from the insulating molecular to the metallic atomic phase, when heated by a pulsed laser at megabar pressures in a diamond anvil cell. Most current experiments…
Loubeyre, Occelli, and Dumas (LOD) [1] claim to have produced metallic hydrogen (MH) at a pressure of 425 GPa, without the necessary supporting evidence of an insulator to metal transition. The paper is much ado about nothing. Most of the…
In the quest to make metallic hydrogen at low temperatures a rich number of new phases have been found and the highest pressure ones have somewhat flat phase lines, around room temperature. We have studied hydrogen to static pressures of…
Liquid-liquid phase transition of hydrogen is at the center of hydrogen phase diagram as a promising route towards emergent properties such as the Wigner-Huntington metallization, superconductivity, and superfluidity. Here we report a study…
We have studied solid hydrogen under pressure at low temperatures. With increasing pressure we observe changes in the sample, going from transparent, to black, to a reflective metal, the latter studied at a pressure of 495 GPa. We have…
High-pressure metal-hydride (MH) research evolved into a thriving field within condensed matter physics following the realisation of metallic compounds showing phonon mediated near room-temperature superconductivity. However, severe…
We comment on a recent paper published by McWilliams et al claiming that high-pressure/high-temperature hydrogen is a semi-conductor or semi-metal, in conflict with all earlier measurements on this system which show that it is metallic. We…
The electrical resistivity of liquid hydrogen has been measured at the high dynamic pressures, densities and temperatures that can be achieved with a reverberating shock wave. The resulting data are most naturally interpreted in terms of a…
Metallic hydrogen is expected to exhibit remarkable physics. Of particular interest in this work is the possibility of high-temperature superconductivity. Comparing calculations of the superconducting critical temperatures of the solid…
The insulator-to-metal transition in dense fluid hydrogen is an essential phenomenon to understand gas giant planetary interiors and the physical and chemical behavior of highly compressed condensed matter. Using fast laser spectroscopy…
The insulator to metal transition in solid hydrogen was predicted over 70 years ago but the demonstration of this transition remains a scientific challenge. In this regard, a peak in the temperature vs. pressure melting line of hydrogen may…
High-pressure techniques open exploration of functional materials in broad research fields. An established diamond anvil cell with a boron-doped diamond heater and transport measurement terminals has performed the high-pressure synthesis of…
Eremets and Troyan (Nature Mater. 10, 927-931 (2011)) claim that they produced the conducting liquid hydrogen state at 270 GPa and 295 K. Their evidence consists of disappearance of Raman signals, visual observations, and measurements of…
