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…
Although Xe is known to form stable compounds with strong electronegative elements, evidence on the formation of stable compounds with electropositive elements, such as Fe and Ni, was missing until very recently. In addition to the…
Helium (He) is the most inert noble gas at ambient conditions. It adopts a hexagonal close packed structure (P63/mmc) and remains in the insulating phase up to 32 TPa. In contrast, lithium (Li) is one of the most reactive metals at zero…
Helium is generally understood to be chemically inert and this is due to its extremely stable closed-shell electronic configuration, zero electron affinity and an unsurpassed ionization potential. It is not known to form thermodynamically…
As a new type of topological materials, ZrTe5 shows many exotic properties under extreme conditions. Utilizing resistance and ac magnetic susceptibility measurements under high pressure, while the resistance anomaly near 128 K is completely…
Recent studies of hydrogen-dominant (superhydride) materials, such as LaH10 have led to putative discoveries of near-room temperature superconductivity at high pressures, with a superconducting transition temperature (Tc) of 250 K observed…
A growing body of theoretical and experimental evidence suggests that inert gases (He, Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe, Rn) become less and less inert under increasing pressure. Here we use the ab initio evolutionary algorithm to predict stable compounds of…
Alkali metals display unexpected properties at high pressure, including emergence of low symmetry crystal structures, that appear to occur due to enhanced electronic correlations among the otherwise nearly-free conduction electrons. We…
This study presents a computational investigation of X4H15 compounds (where X represents a metal) as potential superconductors at ambient conditions or under pressure. Through systematic density functional theory calculations and…
The Fe-based superconducting KxFe2-ySe2 (0.6 {\leg} x {\leg} 1, 0.2{\leg} y {\leg} 0.4) compounds, unlike the well-known RFe2As2 (R = Ba, Sr, Ca) superconductors, contain complex structural features and notable physical properties, such as…
AgSbTe2 is a well-known thermoelectric material with a high Seebeck coefficient and intrinsically low thermal conductivity, but its behavior under pressure remains largely unexplored. Here we report a systematic investigation of the…
Pressure-dependent diffraction response of the superconducting phase separated Cs0.72Fe1.57Se2 has been studied using synchrotron radiation up to the pressure of 19 GPa. The main and secondary phases of Cs0.72Fe1.57Se2 have been observed in…
BaFe2Se3 is a potential superconductor material exhibiting transition at 11 K and ambient pressure. Here we extended the structural and performed electrical resistivity measurements on this compound up to 51 GPa and 20 GPa, respectively, in…
Recent experiments showed the distinct observations on the transition metal ditelluride NiTe$_2$ under pressure: one reported a superconducting phase transition at 12 GPa, whereas another observed a sign reversal of Hall resistivity at 16…
Very recently carbon-rich NaC6 with sodalite-like structure has been predicted to show superconducting transition temperature above 100 K at relatively low applied (compared to high-Tc hydrides) hydrostatic pressures. We have investigated…
Nitrides in many ways are fascinating since they often appear as superconductors, high energy density and hard materials. Though there exist a large variety of nitrides, noble gas nitrides are long missing in nature. Pursuit of noble gas…
We report a high-pressure study on the heavily electron doped Lix(NH3)yFe2Se2 single crystal by using the cubic anvil cell apparatus. The superconducting transition temperature Tc = 44 K at ambient pressure is first suppressed to below 20 K…
Helium and rare gases (RG: Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe) are typically considered chemically inert, yet under the extreme pressures of planetary interiors they may form compounds with unexpected properties. Using crystal structure prediction and…
The local structure and electronic properties of Rb$_{1-x}$Fe$_{2-y}$Se$_2$ are investigated by means of site selective polarized x-ray absorption spectroscopy at the iron and selenium K-edges as a function of pressure. A combination of…
Recently for the first time a stable compound of He and Na (Na2He) is predicted at high pressure. We explore the pressure dependent elastic, mechanical and thermodynamic properties of this newly discovered Na2He by using ab initio…
