The discovery of a superconducting phase in sulfur hydride under high pressure with a critical temperature above 200 K has provided a new impetus to the search for even higher $T_c$. Theory predicted and experiment confirmed that the phase…
Ternary or more complex hydrogen-rich hydrides are the main hope of reaching room-temperature superconductivity at high pressures. Their chemical space is vast and its exploration is challenging. Here we report the investigation of the…
First-principles molecular dynamics (FPMD) simulations are performed on 6 and 12% Na in dense liquid N. A detailed description of structural and electronic properties leading to an understanding of the effect of Na-doping on the…
Recently, C. M. P\'epin \textit{et al.} [Science \textbf{357}, 382 (2017)] reported the formation of several new iron polyhydrides FeH$_x$ at pressures in the megabar range, and spotted FeH$_5$, which forms above 130 GPa, as a potential…
The recent high-pressure experimental discovery of superconductivity in (La,Y)H$_{10}$, (La,Ce)H$_{9}$, (La,Ce)H$_{10}$, (Y,Ce)H$_{9}$, and (La,Nd)H$_{10}$ shows that the ternary rare-earth clathrate hydride can be promising candidate for…
Recently, an extremely high superconducting temperature (Tc) of ~200 K has been reported in the sulfur hydride system above 100 GPa. This result is supported by theoretical predictions and verified experimentally. The crystal structure of…
A simple expression for the composition dependence of the Flory-Huggins interaction parameter of polymer/solvent systems reported earlier is used to model the demixing of polymer solutions into two liquid phases. To this end the system…
We have constructed a pressure$-$temperature ($P-T$) phase diagram of $P$-induced superconductivity in EuFe$_2$As$_2$ single crystals, via resistivity ($\rho$) measurements up to 3.2 GPa. As hydrostatic pressure is applied, an…
Compressed hydrides are promising candidates for high-temperature superconductivity, yet achieving simultaneous structural stability and high-Tc at low pressures remains challenging. Here, we introduce a new mechanism for accomplishing this…
H2S is converted under ultrahigh pressure (> 110 GPa) to a metallic phase that becomes superconducting with a record Tc of 200 K. It has been proposed that the superconducting phase is body-centered cubic H3S ( Im3m , a = 3.089 {\AA})…
Satterthwaite and Toepke (1970 Phys. Rev. Lett. 25 741) discovered that Th4H15-Th4D15 superhydrides are superconducting but exhibit no isotope effect. As the isotope effect is a fundamental prediction of electron-phonon mediated…
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…
While most of the rare earth metals readily form trihydrides, due to increased stability of the filled 4f electronic shell for Yb(II), only YbH$_{2.67}$, formally corresponding to Yb$^{\rm II}$(Yb$^{\rm III}$H$_4$)$_2$ or Yb$_3$H$_8$,…
Very recently, a report on possible room-temperature superconductivity in N-doped lutetium hydrides near 1 GPa pressure has drawn lots of attentions. To date, the superconductivity is not confirmed under relatively low pressure in…
We explore high-pressure phase stability and superconductivity of lanthanum hydrides $LaH_m$ (m=4-11,16). We predict stability of a hitherto unreported polyhydride $P6/mmm$-$LaH_{16}$ at pressures above 150 GPa; at 200 GPa its predicted…
The use of high pressure to realize superconductivity in the vicinity of room temperature has a long history, much of it focused on achieving this in hydrogen rich materials. This paper provides a brief overview of the work presented at…
The thermal conductivity of the methane hydrate CH4 (5.75 H2O) was measured in the interval 2-140 K using the steady-state technique. The thermal conductivity corresponding to a homogeneous substance was calculated from the measured…
A maximum superconductive transition temperature $T_\textrm{C}$ = 203.5 K has recently been reported for a sample of the binary compound tri-hydrogen sulfide (H$_\textrm{3}$S) prepared at high pressure and with room temperature annealing.…
Optical properties of compressed fluid hydrogen in the region where dissociation and metallization is observed are computed by ab-initio methods and compared to recent experimental results. We confirm that above 3000 K both processes are…
The ab initio calculations suggest that the superconducting state in CaH6 under the pressure at 150 GPa has the highest critical temperature among the examined hydrogen-rich compounds. For this reason, the relevant thermodynamic parameters…
