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…

Superconductivity of boron-doped diamond, reported recently at T_c=4 K, is investigated exploiting its electronic and vibrational analogies to MgB2. The deformation potential of the hole states arising from the C-C bond stretch mode is 60%…

We identify a new family of boron-rich compounds consisting of interconnected B$_{12}$ icosahedra, and electropositive guest atoms ($X$) in interstitial sites. These structures were found through first-principles crystal structure…

We study within a first-principle approach the band structure, vibrational modes and electron-phonon coupling in boron, aluminum and phosphorus doped silicon in the diamond phase. Our results provide evidences that the recently discovered…

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…

C$_3$N$_4$ is a recently discovered phase of carbon nitrides with the tetragonal crystal structure [D.Laniel $\textit{et al.}$, Adv. Mater. 2023, 2308030] that is stable at ambient conditions. C$_3$N$_4$ is a semiconductor exhibiting…

Using density functional theory calculations we show that the recently-synthesized, superhard diamond-like BC$_5$ is superconducting with a critical temperature of the same order than that of MgB$_2$. The average electron-phonon coupling is…

We predict by first-principles calculations that the electron-doped phosphorene is a potential BCS-like superconductor. The stretching modes at the Brillouin-zone center are remarkably softened by the electron-doping, which results in the…

We study the effects of Kohn anomalies on the superconducting properties in electron- and hole-doped cases of monolayer blue phosphorene, considering both adiabatic and non-adiabatic phonon dispersions using first-principles calculations.…

We theoretically explore the superconducting critical temperature of hole doped blue phosphorene. Implementing the density functional theory calculations, we show that for the hole doped blue phosphorene, the isotropic superconducting state…

The extreme pressures required to stabilize the recently discovered superhydrides represent a major obstacle to their practical application. In this paper, we propose a novel route to attain high-temperature superconductivity in hydrides at…

We present an {\it ab initio} study of the recently discovered superconductivity of boron doped diamond within the framework of a phonon-mediated pairing mechanism. The role of the dopant, in substitutional position, is unconventional in…

Discovery of high-temperature superconductivity in hydrogen-rich compounds has fuelled the enthusiasm for finding materials with more promising superconducting properties among hydrides. However, the ultrahigh pressure needed to synthesize…

Boron in MgB_2 forms layers of honeycomb lattices with magnesium as a space filler. Band structure calculations indicate that Mg is substantially ionized, and the bands at the Fermi level derive mainly from B orbitals. Strong bonding with…

Based on the first-principles density functional theory electronic structure calculation, we investigate the possible phonon-mediated superconductivity in arsenene, a two-dimensional buckled arsenic atomic sheet, under electron doping. We…

Recent studies of hydrogen-dominant (superhydride) materials, such as LaH10 have led to putative discoveries of near-room temperature superconductivity at high pressures, with a superconducting transition temperature (Tc) of 250 K observed…

We examine the effects of the low-level substitution of S atoms by C and Si atoms on the superconductivity of H$_3$S with the $Im\bar{3}m$ structure at megabar pressure. The hole doping can fine-tune the Fermi energy to reach the electronic…

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…

We predict that electron-doped silicene is a good two-dimensional electron-phonon superconductor under biaxial tensile strain by first-principles calculations within rigid band approximation. Superconductivity transition temperature of…

We substantiate by calculations that the recently discovered superconductivity below 4 K in 3% boron-doped diamond is caused by electron-phonon coupling of the same type as in MgB$_2$, albeit in 3 dimensions. Holes at the top of the…
