BaFe2Se3 (Pnma, CsAg2I3-type structure), recently assumed to show superconductivity at ~ 11 K, exhibits a pressure-dependent structural transition to the CsCu2Cl3-type structure (Cmcm space group) around 60 kbar, as evidenced from…
The crystal structure of CeN was investigated up to pressures of 82 GPa, using diamond anvil cell powder X-ray diffraction in two experiments with He and Si-oil as the pressure transmitting media. In contrast to previous reports, we do not…
Through either elements intercalation or application of pressure, transition metal dichalcogenide 1T-TiSe2 exhibits superconductivity in proximity to a charge density wave (CDW) quantum critical point (QCP), thus providing an ideal avenue…
SnTe, an archetypical topological crystalline insulator, often shows a transition from a highly symmetric cubic phase to a rhombohedral structure at low temperatures. In order to achieve the highly symmetric cubic phase at low temperatures…
Using ab initio evolutionary structure prediction method in conjunction with density functional theory, we performed a systematic investigation on the structural transition of elemental scandium under pressure up to 250 GPa. Our prediction…
Pressure induced superconductivity in non-centrosymmetric CeRhSi$_{3}$ and CeIrSi$_{3}$ compounds has attracted significant attention of the scientific community since its discovery 15 years ago. Up-to-date, all reported experimental…
We study pressure-induced structural evolution of vanadium diselenide (VSe2), a 1T polymorphic member of the transition metal di-chalcogenide (TMD) family using synchrotron-based powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) and first-principles density…
The metal-based noble gas compounds exhibit interesting behavior of electronic valence states under pressure. For example, Xe upon compression can gain electrons from the alkali metal, or lose electrons unexpectedly to Fe and Ni, toward…
We report on the impact of hydrostatic pressure on the superconductivity of optimally (Indium) doped SnTe which is established to be derived from a topological crystalline insulating phase. Single crystals of Sn1-xInxTe were synthesized by…
The solid state reaction method is employed to synthesize Sn1-xInxTe samples. Power Factors of synthesized samples are estimated from resistivity and thermopower data. Modifications in structural parameters, resistivity and thermopower…
Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) usually exhibit layered polytypic structures due to the weak interlayer coupling. 2H-NbSe2 is one of the most widely studied in the pristine TMDC family due to its high superconducting transition…
The intermediate valent systems TmSe and SmB6 have been investigated up to 16 and 18 GPa by ac microcalorimetry with a pressure (p) tuning realized in situ at low temperature. For TmSe, the transition from an antiferromagnetic insulator for…
A single-phase high pressure (HP) modification of CsxFe2-ySe2 was synthesized at 11.8 GPa at ambient temperature. Structurally this polymorph is similar to the minor low pressure (LP) superconducting phase, namely they both crystallize in a…
The evolution of pressure induced superconductivity in single crystal as well as polycrystalline samples of BaFe2As2 has been investigated through temperature dependent electrical resistivity studies in 0-7 GPa pressure range. While the…

Superconductivity has been one of the focal points in medium and high-entropy alloys (MEAs-HEAs) since the first discovery of the HEA superconductor in 2014. Until now, most HEAs' superconducting transition temperature (Tc) has not exceeded…
The effect of pressure on the low-temperature states of the Re3Ge7 is investigated by both electrical and Hall resistance and magnetization measurements. At ambient pressure, the temperature dependent resistance of Re3Ge7 behaves…
