The discovery of high-temperature conventional superconductivity in H3S with a critical temperature of Tc=203 K was followed by the recent record of Tc ~250 K in the face-centered cubic (fcc) lanthanum hydride LaH10 compound. It was…
Rare-earth hydrides can exhibit high-temperature superconductivity under high pressure. Here, we apply a crystal structure prediction method to the current record-holding $T_c$ material, LaH$_{10}$, and a candidate for even higher $T_c$,…
Room temperature superconductivity has been achieved under high pressure in an organically derived carbonaceous sulfur hydride with a critical superconducting transition temperature (Tc) of 288 kelvin. This development is part of a new…
The discovery of superconductivity in $\mathrm{YH_{9}}$ with a critical temperature of approximately $T_c\sim 243 \ K$ has opened a new window toward room temperature superconductivity. In this work, we employ the lowest order constrained…
In an experiment in a diamond anvil cell utilizing helium pressure medium, yttrium metal displays a superconducting transition temperature which increases monotonically from Tc ? 3.5 K at 30 GPa to 17 K at 89.3 GPa, one of the highest…
The abundant chemical compositions in ternary hydrides bring much more possibility to explore high temperature superconductors under lower pressure. Here we constructed 115 ternary hydrides on the basis of the elements substitution using 16…
Motivated by recent discovery of yttrium-based high-temperature ternary superconducting hydrides (e.g., CaYH$_{12}$, LaYH$_{12}$, and ScYH$_{6}$), we have employed evolutionary algorithm and first-principles calculations to comprehensively…
Pressure effect on superconducting properties of two YB6 samples (Tc = 5.9 and 7.5 K) were investigated by measurements of electrical resistivity, magnetic susceptibility, and X-ray diffraction in the pressure range up to 320 kbar.…
The discoveries of high-temperature superconductivity in H3S and LaH10 have excited the search for superconductivity in compressed hydrides. In contrast to rapidly expanding theoretical studies, high-pressure experiments on hydride…
Recently, the thorium hydride ThH9 possessing an H-rich clathrate structure has been experimentally synthesized to exhibit a superconducting transition temperature Tc of 146 K at 170-175 GPa, while the more H-rich clathrate thorium hydride…
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$_8$,…
It has been a hot issue to search for hydrides at high pressure with high superconducting transition temperature (Tc). In this work, ternary hydrogen-rich compounds KYHn (n = 1-16) were studied and calculated using the density function…
The discovery of clathrate superhydrides has approached the long-standing dream of room-temperature superconductivity and thus inspired their prosperous research under high pressure. However, how to experimentally optimize these compelling…
High-pressure superconductivity in a rare-earth doped Ca0.86Pr0.14Fe2As2 single crystalline sample has been studied up to 12 GPa and temperatures down to 11 K using designer diamond anvil cell under a quasi-hydrostatic pressure medium. The…
The effects of pressure on the superconducting properties of a Bi-based layered superconductor La2O2Bi3Ag0.6Sn0.4S6, which possesses a four-layer-type conducting layer, have been studied through the electrical resistance and magnetic…
We present a combined theoretical and experimental study of the high-pressure behavior of thallium. X-ray diffraction experiments have been carried out at room temperature up to 125 GPa using diamond-anvil cells, nearly doubling the…
The discovery of superconductivity at 203 K in H3S brought attention back to conventional superconductors whose properties can be described by the Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) and the Migdal-Eliashberg theories. These theories predict…
Noble metals adopt close-packed structures at ambient pressure and rarely undergo structural transformation at high pressures. Platinum (Pt), in particular, is normally considered to be unreactive and is therefore not expected to form…
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, Troyan et al (2019 arXiv:1908.01534) and Kong et al (2019 arXiv:1909.10482) extended near-room-temperature superconductors family by new yttrium superhydride polymorphs, YHn (n = 4,6,7,9), which exhibit superconducting transition…
