Room-temperature superconductivity has been a long-held dream and an area of intensive research. Recent experimental findings at 200 K in highly compressed hydrogen (H) sulfides have demonstrated the potential for achieving room-temperature H-rich materials.

The recent theory-orientated discovery of record high-temperature superconductivity (T_{c}∼250 K) in sodalitelike clathrate LaH_{10} is an important advance toward room-temperature superconductors. Here, we identify alternative structure ternary Li_{2}MgH_{16} with a remarkably high estimated T_{c} ∼473 K at 250 GPa, which may allow us to obtain or even higher-temperature superconductivity. compound mimics Li- electron-doped binary hydride MgH_{16}. parent contains H_{2} molecules and not...

A first principles quantum-mechanical method for estimating intrinsic breakdown strength of insulating materials has been implemented based on an average electron model which assumes that the occurs when energy gain from electric field exceeds loss to phonons. The approach is density functional perturbation theory and direct integration electronic scattering probabilities over all possible final states, with no adjustable parameters. computed several prototypical compares favorably available...

The 203 K superconductivity of ${\mathrm{SH}}_{3}$ stimulates enormous interest in searching for high-temperature superconductors compressed hydrides. While several hydrides show ($>180\phantom{\rule{0.16em}{0ex}}\mathrm{K}$) at extremely high pressure, it is highly desired to design that can achieve similar relatively lower pressure. In this work we identify a cubic structure ternary ${\mathrm{CSH}}_{7}$ be viewed as methane (${\mathrm{CH}}_{4}$) molecules inserted into the host lattice...

Achieving room-temperature superconductivity has been an enduring scientific pursuit driven by broad fundamental interest and enticing potential applications. The recent discovery of high-pressure clathrate superhydride LaH10 with superconducting critical temperatures (Tc) 250-260 K made it tantalizingly close to realizing this long-sought goal.

Crystal structure prediction (CSP) and machine learning potential (MLP) are two fundamental methods for modern computational material discovery. While the former aims at efficient sampling of energy surface (PES) discovering new materials, latter focuses on reproducing PES to accelerate various atomic simulation tasks. In this work, we combine within a concurrent framework in an effort generate MLP models accelerating CSP. The proposed scheme explores through swarm-intelligence calypso...

The possibility of high, room-temperature superconductivity was predicted for metallic hydrogen in the 1960s. However, metallization and are yet to be unambiguously demonstrated may require pressures as high 5 million atmospheres. Rare earth based "superhydrides", such LaH10, can considered a close approximation even though they form at moderately lower pressures. In superhydrides predominance H-H bonds superconducting transition temperatures bear hallmarks hydrogen. Still, experimental...

Previous experimental evidence showed that silane ($\mathrm{Si}{\mathrm{H}}_{4}$) becomes a superconductive phase at critical temperature (${T}_{\mathrm{c}}$) of 17 K above 96 GPa, although this observation was not supported by later experiments due to the fact $\mathrm{Si}{\mathrm{H}}_{4}$ measured decompose into amorphous silicon and solid hydrogen $\ensuremath{\sim}60--90\phantom{\rule{0.16em}{0ex}}\mathrm{GPa}$ then recrystallized nonmetallic up...

Recent advances in the search for room-temperature superconductors have focused on high-temperature superconductivity compressed hydrides, though sustaining this at ambient pressure remains challenging. Concurrently, sp3-bonded frameworks comprising lightweight elements offer another avenue ambient-pressure superconductors. However, their critical temperatures (Tc) still fall short of those hydrides. Here we propose a design strategy achieving by integrating hydride units into B–C clathrate...

Metal-stuffed B-C compounds with sodalite clathrate structure have captured increasing attention due to their predicted exceptional superconductivity above liquid nitrogen temperature at ambient pressure. However, by neglecting the quantum lattice anharmonicity, existing studies may result in an incomplete understanding of such a lightweight system. Here, using state-of-the-art *ab initio* methods incorporating effects and machine learning potentials, we revisit properties series...

Pressure is adopted as a "clean" tool to achieve core/shell configuration transition of CdSe/CdS nanocrystals (NCs) from quasi-type II type I. The pressure-dependent photoluminescence (PL) spectra demonstrate sudden decrease in PL intensity, because the enhanced rate exciton-exciton annihilation I structured NCs. Likewise, large lifetime with pressure confirms that electron wave function mainly localizes into CdSe core, indicating decreased separation electrons and holes band alignment. We...
