From first-principles calculations, we predict four new intercalated hexagonal $X$BC ($X$=Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba) compounds to be dynamically stable and phonon-mediated superconductors. These compounds form a LiBC like structure but are metallic.…

Combining crystal structure search and first-principles calculations, we report a series of two-dimensional (2D) metal borides including orthorhombic (ort-) MB6 (M=Mg, Ca) and hexagonal (hex-) MB6 (M=Mg, Ca, Sc, Ti, Sr, Y). Then, we…

Two-dimensional (2D) boron has been predicted to show superconductivity. However, intrinsic 2D carbon and phosphorus have not been reported to be superconductors, which, inspires us to seek superconductivity in their mixture. Here we…

Pursuit of superconductivity in light-element systems at ambient pressure is of great experimental and theoretical interest. In this work, we combine a machine learning (ML) method with first-principles calculations to efficiently search…

By means of the first-principles density-functional theory calculation and Wannier interpolation, electron-phonon coupling and superconductivity are systematically explored for boron-doped LiBC (i.e. LiB$_{1+x}$C$_{1-x}$), with $x$ between…

The search for room-temperature superconductors is a major challenge in modern physics. The discovery of copper-oxide superconductors in 1986 brought hope but also revealed complex mechanisms that are difficult to analyze and compute. In…

Boron carbon compounds have been shown to have feasible superconductivity. In our earlier paper [Zheng et al., Phys. Rev. B 107, 014508 (2023)], we identified a new conventional superconductor of LiB3C at 100 GPa. Here, we aim to extend the…

Using the full potential linear muffin-tin orbitals (FP-LMTO) method we examine the pressure-dependence of superconductivity in the two metallic phases of Boron: bct and fcc. Linear response calculations are carried out to examine the…

We perform a large scale study of conventional superconducting materials using a machine-learning accelerated high-throughput workflow. We start by creating a comprehensive dataset of around 7000 electron-phonon calculations performed with…

The electronic structure, lattice dynamics, and electron-phonon coupling of the boron-doped diamond are investigated using the density functional supercell method. Our results indicate the boron-doped diamond is a phonon mediated…

A very recent report claims that ambient-pressure high-temperature ($T_c$) superconductivity was found in boron-doped three-dimensional networks of carbon nanotubes (CNTs). Here, we systematically study the electron-phonon coupling (EPC) of…

The phonon-mode decomposition of the electron-phonon coupling in the MgB2-like system Li_{1-x}BC is explored using first principles calculations. It is found that the high temperature superconductivity of such systems results from extremely…

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…

Searching for ambient-pressure conventional superconductors with critical temperatures (TC) higher than 40 K is a key challenge in the field of high-temperature superconductivity, mainly due to lack of efficient and effective models to…

We have studied the lattice dynamics, electron-phonon coupling, and superconducting properties of $\alpha$-MoB$_2$, as a function of applied pressure, within the framework of density functional perturbation theory using a mixed-basis…

We report a detailed study of specific heat, electrical resistivity and optical spectroscopy in the superconducting boride LuB12 (Tc = 0.4 K) and compare it to the higher Tc compound ZrB12 (Tc = 6 K). Both compounds have the same structure…

Utilizing Migdal-Eliashberg theory of superconductivity within the first-principles calculations, we work out the role of electron-phonon coupling (EPC) and anisotropic superconducting properties of a recently discovered [Appl. Phys. Lett.…

Boron-rich lithium borocarbides are promising candidates for phonon-mediated high-temperature superconductors due to their metallic $\sigma$-bonding electrons. Here, we use the cluster expansion method to identify energetically stable…

Phonon-mediated superconductivity is conventionally thought to be capped at a transition temperature $T_{\mathrm{c}}$ no larger than roughly one-tenth of the phonon frequency $\Omega$, a bound rooted in the breakdown of Migdal-Eliashberg…

We study superconductivity in Boron using first-principles LAPW calculations, the rigid-muffin-tin approximation and the McMillan theory. Our results point to an electron-phonon mechanism producing transition temperatures near 10K at high…
