The layered Bi-chalcogenide compounds have been drawing much attention as a new layered superconductor family since 2012. Due to the rich variation of crystal structure and constituent elements, the development of new physics and chemistry…
We theoretically investigate qualitative features of the field-temperature ($H$-$T$) phase diagram of superconductors with strong attractive interaction lying in the BCS-BEC crossover regime. Starting with a simple attractive Hubbard model,…
Experiments show that isochoric (constant-volume) conditions enhance supercooling stability relative to isobaric (constant-pressure) conditions. Here, combining Helmholtz equilibrium thermodynamics with a first-order perturbation…
By applying a genetic algorithm in a cascade approach of increasing accuracy, we calculate the composition and structure of MgMOx clusters at realistic temperatures and oxygen pressures. The stable and metastable systems are identified by…
The effect of Li substitution for Mg and of Li-C co-substitution on the superconducting properties and crystal structure of MgB2 single crystals has been investigated. It has been found that hole doping with Li decreases the superconducting…
We use ab initio pseudopotential total energy calculations with a plane wave basis set to investigate the structural energetics of various phases of polymorphic NbN. Particular attention is given to its recently discovered superconducting…
Using first-principles variable-composition evolutionary methodology, we explored the high-pressure structures of beryllium hydrides between 0 and 400 GPa. We found that BeH$_2$ remains the only stable compound in this pressure range. The…
After the decade-long exhaustive study of binary high-Tc superconducting hydrides, the frontier of this stimulating research field has recently shifted to ternary hydrides with much expanded conformational space in search of coveted…
Understanding the phase stability of elemental lithium (Li) is crucial for optimizing its performance in lithium-metal battery anodes, yet this seemingly simple metal exhibits complex polymorphism that requires proper accounting for quantum…
We derive the dynamic and thermodynamic stability conditions for dilute multicomponent Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs). These stability conditions, generalized for $n$-component BECs, are found to be equivalent and are shown to be…
Recent breakthrough experiments on dipolar condensates have reported the creation of supersolids, including two-dimensional arrays of quantum droplets. Droplet arrays are, however, not the only possible non-trivial density arrangement…
Principles of design to create dynamically stable transition metal, lanthanide, and actinide based low-dimensional borides are presented. A charge transfer analysis of donor metal atoms to electron deficient honeycombed B lattices allows to…

We survey the landscape of binary hydrides across the entire periodic table from 10 to 500 GPa using a crystal structure prediction method. Building a critical temperature ($T_c$) model, with inputs arising from density of states…
We report on the synthesis and extensive characterization of layered Bi4O4S3 superconductor. This is the optimally doped sample with Tc ~5.3 K out of a series of Bi6O4S4(SO4)_1-x samples synthesized by solid state reaction. The series was…
We have investigated the lattice dynamics of LiBC. Experimental Raman and inelastic neutron scattering results are confronted with density functional calculations. The excellent agreement between experiment and theory indicates that we have…
A recent experiment reported that robust superconductivity appears in NbTi alloys under ultrahigh pressures with an almost constant superconducting $T_c$ of ~19 K from 120 to 261.7 GPa [J. Guo et al., Adv. Mater. 31, 1807240 (2019)], which…
By means of density-functional calculations, we systematically investigated 24 transition metals for possible metastable phases in body-centered tetragonal structure (bct), including face-centered cubic (fcc) and body-centered cubic (bcc)…
We report detailed magnetic, transport and thermodynamic properties of metastable Rh3Bi14 single crystals in superconducting and normal state. We show that Rh3Bi14 is nearly isotropic, weak to intermediately coupled BCS superconductor,…
The bistable deployable composite boom (Bi-DCB) can realize the bistable function by storing and releasing strain energy, which has a good application prospect in the aerospace field. In this paper, the folding stable state of the Bi-DCB…
