Effects of pressure on the electronic structure, electron-phonon interaction, and superconductivity of the high entropy alloy (TaNb)$_{0.67}$(HfZrTi)$_{0.33}$ are studied in the pressure range 0 - 100 GPa. The electronic structure is…
The half-Heusler (hH) compounds are currently considered promising thermoelectric (TE) materials due to their favorable thermopower and electrical conductivity. Accurate estimates of these properties are therefore highly desirable and…
We present electronic structure calculations together with resistivity, susceptibility, and specific heat measurements for TaB$_2$ to search for the recently contradictorily reported superconductivity and to study related normal state…
Using density functional theory within the local density approximation we report a study of the electron-phonon coupling in NbC$_{1-x}$N$_x$ and NbN crystals in the rocksalt structure. The Fermi surface of these systems exhibits important…
We report on a comparative study of the electronic structure, phonon spectra, and superconducting properties for recently discovered superconducting hydrides, H3S and H3P. While the electronic structures of these two materials are similar,…
Unlike the widely studied ReFeAsO series, the newly discovered iron-based superconductor ThFeAsN exhibits a remarkably high critical temperature of 30 K, without chemical doping or external pressure. Here we investigate in detail its…
Superconductivity in two-dimensional compounds is widely concerned, not only due to its application in constructing nano-superconducting devices, but also for the general scientific interests. Very recently, borophene (two-dimensional boron…
Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), exhibit a range of crystal structures and topological quantum states. The 1$T$ phase, in particular, shows promise for superconductivity driven by electron-phonon coupling, strain, pressure, and…
In this paper, we investigate the electronic band structure, lattice dynamics and electron-phonon interaction in $\delta$-NbN, $\varepsilon$-NbN and WC-NbN by performing systematic ab initio calculations based on DFT-GGA. The calculated…
Lattice parameter, electronic structure, mechanical and thermodynamic properties of ThN are systematically studied using the projector-augmented-wave method and the generalized gradient approximation based on the density functional theory.…
Since its discovery more than a century ago, superconductivity has been at the epicentre of condensed matter physics research. The electron phonon coupling in conventional superconductors, which obeys BCS theory, causes an attractive…
We study the properties of ThCr$_2$Si$_2$ structure BaMn$_2$As$_2$ and BaMn$_2$Sb$_2$ using density functional calculations of the electronic and magnetic as well experimental measurements on single crystal samples of BaMn$_2$As$_2$. These…
ThCoC$_2$ is a non-BCS, noncentrosymmetric superconductor with $T_c \simeq 2.5$~K, in which pairing mechanism was suggested to be either spin fluctuations or the electron-phonon coupling. Earlier experimental work revealed that $T_c$ can be…
We show that the superconducting transition temperature Tc of FeSe1-xTex can be computed to reasonable values in a modified McMillan approach in which the electron-phonon coupling is amplified by the antiferromagnetism and the out-of-plane…
This review discusses and compares electronic spectra of new iron-based high-temperature superconductors (HTSC), as well as a number of chemically similar compounds. Particular attention is payed to iron chalcogenide K_{1-x}Fe_{2-y}Se_2,…
Ternary chalcogenides have been of recent investigation for applications in photovoltaic and thermoelectric devices. We study the structural, electronic, optical, and thermoelectric properties of nine ternary chalcogenides, NaAX$_{2}$,…
Fundamental upper bounds on the electron-phonon interaction strength and superconducting transition temperature $T_c$ in metals are established based on the intrinsic instability of the equilibrium between electrons and the crystal lattice…
We present a workflow that iteratively combines \textit{ab-initio} calculations with a machine-learning (ML) guided search for superconducting compounds with both dynamical stability and instability from imaginary phonon modes, the latter…
To understand the pressure-induced changes in the electronic structure and the electron-phonon interaction in yttrium, we have studied hexagonal close-packed (hcp) yttrium, stable at ambient pressure and double hexagonal close-packed (dhcp)…
A first-principles density-functional-theory method has been used to reinvestigate the mechanical and dynamical stability of the metallic phase of AlH3 between 65-110 GPa. The electronic properties and phonon dynamics as a function of…
