Density functional theory calculations with a correction of the long-range dispersion force, namely the van der Waals (vdW) force, are performed for SiC polytypes. The lattice parameters are in good agreement with those obtained from…

A van der Waals (vdW) density functional was implemented in the mixed basis approach previously developed for studying two dimensional systems, in which the vdW interaction plays an important role. The basis functions here are taken to be…

Over the past decade, a combination of crystal structure prediction techniques and experimental synthetic work has thoroughly explored the phase diagrams of binary hydrides under pressure. The fruitfulness of this dual approach is…

Misfit layered compounds are natural van der Waals heterostructures in which electronically active transition-metal dichalcogenide layers are decoupled by incommensurate blocking layers, enabling bulk realization of quasi-two-dimensional…

Solid CS$_{2}$ is superficially similar to CO$_{2}$, with the same $Cmca$ molecular crystal structure at low pressures, which has suggested similar phases also at high pressures. We carried out an extensive first principles evolutionary…

The Li-Sn binary system has been the focus of extensive research because it features Li-rich alloys with potential applications as battery anodes. Our present re-examination of the binary system with a combination of machine learning and ab…

Knowledge of the behavior of hydrogen in metal hydrides is the key for understanding their electronic properties. So far, no experimental methods exist to access these properties beyond 100 GPa, where high-Tc superconductivity emerges.…

A GW calculation based on a truncated Coulomb interaction with an added small q limit was applied to 2D van der Waals heterolayered structures, and the Kane dispersion model was used to determine the accurate band gap edge. All ab initio…

Metallic fluid H has been made by dynamic compression decades after Wigner and Huntington (WH) predicted its existence in 1935. The density obtained experimentally is within a few percent of the density predicted by WH. Metallic fluid H was…

Binary metal sulfides are potential material family for exploring high Tc superconductors under high pressure. In this work, we study the crystal structures, electronic structures and superconducting properties of the Lu-S system in the…

The inherent structures ({\it IS}) are the local minima of the potential energy surface or landscape, $U({\bf r})$, of an {\it N} atom system. Stillinger has given an exact {\it IS} formulation of thermodynamics. Here the implications for…

Nitrogen hydrides, including ammonia (NH3), hydrazine (N2H4), hydrazoic acid (HN3) and etc, are compounds of great fundamental and applied importance. Their high-pressure behavior is important because of their abundance in giant planets and…

By employing first-principles metadynamics simulations, we explore the 300 K structures of solid hydrogen over the pressure range 150-300 GPa. At 200 GPa, we find the ambient-pressure disordered hexagonal close-packed (hcp) phase transited…

Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a prototype molecular system and a sister molecule of water. The phase diagram of solid H2S at high pressures remains largely unexplored arising from the challenges in dealing with the looser S-H bond and larger…

Binary uranium hydrides, UHx (x = 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8), with different crystal symmetries are potentially interesting compounds for high-Tc superconductivity and as hydrogen storage systems. In this work we have explored the structural,…

Plutonium dioxide is of high technological importance in nuclear fuel cycle and is particularly crucial in long-term storage of Pu-based radioactive waste. Using first-principles density-functional theory, in this paper we systematically…

We reassess the phase diagram of high-pressure solid hydrogen using mean-field and many-body wave function based approaches to determine the nature of phase III of solid hydrogen. To discover the best candidates for phase III, density…

We review five years of experimental and theoretical attempts (2020-2025) to enhance the superconducting critical temperature ($\textit{T$_c$}$) of hydrogen-rich compounds by alloying binary superhydrides with additional elements. Despite…

Bilayer borophene has recently attracted much interest due to its outstanding mechanical and electronic properties. The interlayer interactions of these bilayers are reported differently in theoretical and experimental studies. Herein, we…

The discovery of superconductivity at 200 K in the hydrogen sulfide system at large pressures [1] was a clear demonstration that hydrogen-rich materials can be high-temperature superconductors. The recent synthesis of LaH$_{10}$ with a…
