Searching for superconductivity with Tc near room temperature is of great interest both for fundamental science & many potential applications. Here we report the experimental discovery of superconductivity with maximum critical temperature…
This paper presents the results of an extensive structural search of ternary solids containing lutetium, nitrogen and hydrogen. Based on thousands of thermodynamically stable structures, available online, the convex hull of the formation…
High-pressure superhydrides have attracted much attention due to their high superconducting critical temperatures ($T_\text{c}$s). Herein, density functional theory (DFT) calculations are used to study the structures and properties,…
A first-order phase transition is found in the multilayer cuprate superconductor, HgBa$_2$Ca$_4$Cu$_5$O$_y$ (Hg-1245), with a superconducting transition temperature of 108 K, under zero magnetic field. We observed a hysteretic specific heat…
The binary compound V$_3$Ga can exhibit two near-equilibrium phases, consisting of the A15 structure that is superconducting, and the Heusler D0$_3$ structure that is semiconducting and antiferromagnetic. Density functional theory…
A key challenge in materials discovery is to find high-temperature superconductors. Hydrogen and hydride materials have long been considered promising materials displaying conventional phonon-mediated superconductivity. However, the high…
The measurement of superconductivity at above 200K in compressed samples of hydrogen sulfide and lanthanum hydride at 250K is reinvigorating the search for conventional high temperature superconductors. At the same time it exposes a…
The structural features and physical properties of the antiferromagnetic K0.8Fe1.6Se2 (so called K2Fe4Se5 phase) have been studied in the temperature range from 300K up to 600K. Resistivity measurements on both single crystal and…
As the simplest element in nature, unraveling the phase diagram of hydrogen is a primary task for condensed matter physics. As conjectured many decades ago, in the low-temperature and high-pressure part of the phase diagram, solid hydrogen…
Oxygen exhibits structural phase transformation from non-metallic $\epsilon$-O2 phase into metallic $\zeta$-O2 phase at pressure of P = 96 GPa (Desgreniers et al 1990 J. Phys. Chem. 94 1117; Akahama et al 1995 Phys. Rev. Lett. 74 4690).…
X-ray diffraction indicates that the structure of the recently discovered room temperature carbonaceous sulfur hydride (C-S-H) superconductor is derived from previously established van der Waals compounds found in the H$_2$S-H$_2$ and…
Studies on polyhydrides are attracting growing attentions recently due to their potential high temperature superconductivity (SC). We here report the discovery of SC in hafnium polyhydrides at high pressures. The hafnium superhydrides are…
We have determined the crystal structures and superconducting transition temperatures of La1.48Nd0.4Sr0.12CuO4 under nearly hydrostatic pressures in diamond anvil cells to 5.0 GPa and 19.0 GPa, respectively. Synchrotron x-ray powder…
Superconducting characteristics such as the Meissner-Ochsenfeld state, screening supercurrents and hysteresis loops of type-II superconductors were observed from the temperature and magnetic field dependences of the magnetic moment, m(T,…
There has been a recent controversy about the high pressure polymorphism of Hafnium (Hf). Unlike, the earlier known {\alpha} $\rightarrow$ {\omega} structural transition at 38 $\pm$ 8 GPa, Hrubiak et al (2012) did not observe it till 51…
Single crystals of Bi$_{2} $Rh$ _{3}$S$ _{2}$ and Bi$_{2} $Rh$ _{3.5}$S$ _{2}$ were synthesized by solution growth and the crystal structures, thermodynamic and transport properties of both compounds were studied. In the case of Bi$_{2}…
At present, metal hydrides are considered highly promising materials for phonon-mediated superconductors, that exhibit high values of the critical temperature. In the present study, the superconducting properties of the compressed selenium…
High entropy alloys (HEAs) are the new class of materials with an attractive combination of tunable mechanical and physicochemical properties. They crystallize mainly in cubic structures, however, for practical applications, HEAs with…
Normally, understanding the temperature dependent transport properties of strongly correlated electron systems remains challenging task due to complex electronic structure and its variations (around E$_{F}$) with temperature. Here, we…
Iron-based superconductors can be categorized as two types of parent compounds by considering the nature of their temperature-induced phase transitions; namely, first order transitions for 122- and 11-type compounds and second-order…
