In recent years, metal hydride research has become one of the driving forces of the high-pressure community, as it is believed to hold the key to superconductivity close to ambient temperature. While numerous novel metal hydride compounds…
An extended study on PdS is carried out with the measurements of the resistivity, Hall coefficient, Raman scattering, and X-ray diffraction at high pressures up to 42.3 GPa. With increasing pressure, superconductivity is observed…
A class of iridium hydrides, IrH_x (x=0.5, 1-4, 6), is calculated at ab-initio level using the DFT. A number of hydrides are predicted to stabilize in the excess hydrogen environment and upon compression. The threshold pressure for…
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…
The high pressure phases of HBr are explored with an ab initio crystal structure search. By taking into account the contribution of zero-point energy (ZPE), we find that the P4/nmm phase of HBr is thermodynamically stable in the pressure…
Here we report targeted high-pressure synthesis of two novel high-$T_C$ hydride superconductors, $P6_3/mmc$-$ThH_9$ and $Fm\bar{3}m$-$ThH_{10}$, with the experimental critical temperatures ($T_C$) of 146 K and 159-161 K and upper critical…
Capitani and coworkers [1] reported that infrared optical reflectance measurements provided evidence for a superconducting transition in sulfur hydride [2] under 150 GPa pressure, and that the transition is driven by the electron-phonon…
Due to its low atomic mass hydrogen is the most promising element to search for high-temperature phononic superconductors. However, metallic phases of hydrogen are only expected at extreme pressures (400 GPa or higher). The measurement of a…
The recent discovery of room temperature superconductivity (283 K) in carbonaceous sulfur hydride (C-S-H) has attracted lots of interests in ternary hydrogen rich materials. In this report, ternary hydride P-S-H has been synthesized through…
The prediction of superconductivity above 200 K in CaH$_6$ revolutionized research on hydrogen-rich superconductors, and subsequent experiments have verified this prediction, while unidentified peaks in XRD and the decrease in…
New stable thorium decahydride $Fm\bar{3}m$-$ThH_{10}$, a record high-temperature superconductor with $T_C$ up to 241 K ($-32^{\circ}C$), critical field $H_C$ up to 71T and superconducting gap ${\Delta_0}$ = 52 meV at 80-100 GPa was…
The compressed hydrogen-rich compounds have received extensive attention as promising candidates for room temperature superconductivity, however, the high pressure required to stabilize such materials hinders their wide practical…
Silane (SiH4) is found to (partially) decompose at pressures above 50 GPa at room temperature into pure Si and H2. The released hydrogen reacts with surrounding metals in the diamond anvil cell to form metal hydrides. A formation of rhenium…
To understand the most-recent experiment on room-temperature superconductivity in carbonaceous sulfur hydride (CSH) systems under high pressure, we have performed extensive stoichiometry and structure searches of ternary CSH compounds using…
In previous work,1 we showed that hydrogen metallizes in phase III at temperatures below ~200 K and at pressures near ~350 GPa. Here, we perform a detailed study of electrical conductivity R(T) in phase III over a pressure range of 200-400…
Hydrides have long been considered promising candidates for achieving room-temperature superconductivity; however, the extremely high pressures typically required for high critical temperatures remain a major challenge in experiment. Here,…
Discovery of superconductivity at megabar (MB) pressures in hydrogen sulfide H3S, then in metal polyhydrides, starting with binary, LaH10, etc., and ending with ternary ones, including (La, Y)H10, revolutionized the field of condensed…
Discovery of high-temperature superconductivity in hydrogen-rich compounds has fuelled the enthusiasm for finding materials with more promising superconducting properties among hydrides. However, the ultrahigh pressure needed to synthesize…
The only known compound of sodium and hydrogen is archetypal ionic NaH. Application of high pressure is known to promote states with higher atomic coordination, but extensive searches for polyhydrides with unusual stoichiometry remain…
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…
