Superconductivity in sodalite-like yttrium hydride clathrates

Christoph Heil, Simone di Cataldo, Giovanni B. Bachelet +7

We report ab-initio calculations of the superconducting properties of two high-Tc sodalite-like clathrate yttrium hydrides, YH6 and YH10, within the fully anisotropic ME theory, in…

Absence of superconductivity in iron polyhydrides at high pressures

Christoph Heil, Giovanni B. Bachelet, Lilia Boeri

Recently, C. M. Pépin \textit{et al.} [Science \textbf{357}, 382 (2017)] reported the formation of several new iron polyhydrides FeH at pressures in the megabar range, and spot…

Origin of superconductivity and latent charge density wave in NbS

Christoph Heil, Samuel Poncé, Henry Lambert +3

We elucidate the origin of the phonon-mediated superconductivity in 2-NbS using the ab initio anisotropic Migdal-Eliashberg theory including Coulomb interactions. We demonst…

Search for high-Tc conventional superconductivity at megabar pressures in the lithium-sulfur system

Christian Kokail, Christoph Heil, Lilia Boeri

Motivated by the recent report of superconductivity above 200 K in ultra-dense hydrogen sulfide, we search for high-\tc\ conventional superconductivity in the phase diagram of the…

Superconductivity in metastable phases of phosphorus-hydride compounds under high pressure

José A. Flores-Livas, Maximilian Amsler, Christoph Heil +6

Hydrogen-rich compounds have been extensively studied both theoretically and experimentally in the quest for novel high-temperature superconductors. Reports on sulfur-hydride attai…

Influence of bonding on superconductivity in high-pressure hydrides

Christoph Heil, Lilia Boeri

The recent reports on high-temperature superconductivity above 190 K in hydrogen sulfide at 200 GPa pressure, exceeding all previously discovered superconductors, has greatly invig…
