The recent report of superconductivity in nitrogen-doped lutetium hydride at near-ambient pressures and temperatures has attracted great attention but also continuing controversy. Several experimental groups have reported no observation of…
The recent claim of superconductivity above room temperature in Pb$_{10-x}$Cu$_x$(PO$_4$)$_6$O with 0.9 < $x$ < 1 (referred to as LK-99) has sparked considerable interest. To minimize the influence of structural defects and impurity phases…
We report the multistep electrolytic process for the synthesis of high Tc single phase HgBa2Ca2Cu3O8+ (Hg-1223) superconducting films. The process includes : i) deposition of BaCaCu precursor alloy, ii) oxidation of BaCaCu films,…
A material described as lutetium-hydrogen-nitrogen (Lu-H-N in short) was recently claimed to have near-ambient superconductivity[Gammon et al, Nature 615, 244, 2023]. If the results could be reproduced by other teams, it would be a major…
Binary metal sulfides are potential material family for exploring high Tc superconductors under high pressure. In this work, we study the crystal structures, electronic structures and superconducting properties of the Lu-S system in the…
Two hydrogen-rich materials, H$_3$S and LaH$_{10}$, synthesized at megabar pressures, have revolutionized the field of condensed matter physics providing the first glimpse to the solution of the hundred-year-old problem of room temperature…
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…
Metal hydrides have earlier been suggested for utilization in solar cells. With this as a motivation we have prepared thin films of yttrium hydride by reactive magnetron sputter deposition. The resulting films are metallic for low partial…
The recent report of near-ambient conditions superconductivity in a nitrogen-doped lutetium hydride has inspired a large number of experimental studies with contradictory results. We model from first principles the physical properties of…
We report strain engineering of superconductivity in RuO$_2$ singlecrystalline films, which are epitaxially grown on rutile TiO$_2$ and MgF$_2$ substrates with various crystal orientations. Systematic mappings between the superconducting…
Recently, the claim of room-temperature superconductivity in nitrogen-doped lutetium hydride at near-ambient conditions has attracted tremendous attention. Criticism of the work rises shortly, while further explorations are needed to settle…
Copper-doped zinc sulphide (ZnS:Cu) thin films were synthesized through pulsed laser ablation in an inert background gas on stationary and rotating substrates, and a comprehensive opto-electrical characterisation is presented. The…
We used our developed AI search engine~(InvDesFlow) to perform extensive investigations regarding ambient stable superconducting hydrides. A cubic structure Li$_2$AuH$_6$ with Au-H octahedral motifs is identified to be a candidate. After…
Using a comprehensive structure search and high-throughput first-principles calculations of 1483 compounds, this study presents the phase diagram of Lu-H-N. The formation energy landscape of Lu-H-N was derived and utilized to assess the…
Recently it was claimed that nitrogen-doped lutetium hydride exhibited a near-ambient superconducting transition with a temperature of 294 K at a pressure of only 10 kbar, this pressure being several orders of magnitude lower than…
Crystallization of thin film materials by exploiting laser induced crystallization has been advancing for the past four decades. This unique thin film technique has been predominantly used in processing thin film materials made of a single…
High-pressure structural search was performed on the hydrogen-rich compound LuBeH$_8$ at pressures up to 200 GPa. We found a $Fm\overline{3}m$ structure that exhibits stability and superconductivity above 100 GPa. Our phonon dispersion,…
Very recently, a report on possible room-temperature superconductivity in N-doped lutetium hydrides near 1 GPa pressure has drawn lots of attentions. To date, the superconductivity is not confirmed under relatively low pressure in…
Hydrogen-rich materials offer a compelling avenue towards room temperature superconductivity, albeit under ultra-high pressure. However, the experimental investigation of the electronic band structure remains elusive, due to the inherent…
Hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) is unique among two-dimensional materials, with a large band gap (~6 eV) and high thermal conductivity (>400 W/m/K), second only to diamond among electrical insulators. Most electronic studies to date have…
