Optimal coloring and strain-enhanced superconductivity in Li${}_n$B${}_{n+1}$C${}_{n-1}$

Yuhao Gu, Jiangping Hu, Hong Jiang +1

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…
