Evolutionary algorithms (EA) coupled with Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations have been used to predict the most stable hydrides of phosphorous (PHn, n = 1-6) at 100, 150 and 200 GPa. At these pressures phosphine is unstable with…
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…
Hydrogen-rich compounds have been extensively studied both theoretically and experimentally in the quest for novel high-temperature superconductors. Reports on sulfur-hydride attaining metallicity under pressure and exhibiting…
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…
Following the recent discovery of very high temperature conventional superconductivity in sulfur hydride (critical temperature Tc of 203 K, Ref1) we searched for superconductivity in other hydrides and found that a covalent hydride…
Milestone experimental discovery of superconductivity above 200 K in highly-compressed sulphur hydride by Drozdov (Nature 525, 73 (2015)) sparked experimental and theoretical investigations of metallic hydrides. Since then, a dozen of…
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…

Hydrogen-rich hydrides attract great attention due to recent theoretical (1) and then experimental discovery of record high-temperature superconductivity in H3S (Tc = 203 K at 155 GPa (2)). Here we search for stable uranium hydrides at…
The primary challenge in the field of high-temperature superconductivity in hydrides is to achieve a superconducting state at ambient pressure rather than the extreme pressures that have been required in experiments so far. Here, we propose…

Reducing the stabilization pressure of superhydrides represents one of the most important challenges in hydrogen-saturated compound chemistry. Moving in this direction, we studied the Ba-Si-H system at 0-142 GPa using transport…
Hydrogen and hydrides materials have long been considered promising materials for high-temperature superconductivity. But the extreme pressures required for the metallization of hydrogen-based superconductors limit their applications. Here,…
Simple cubic (sc) black phosphorus (denoted BP), stable at P>10GPa, seems an ordinary metal. It has electron-phonon-driven superconductivity with Tc 5-10 K. The A17 phase, stable at atmospheric pressure, has a narrow gap, becomes…
