Searching for Superconductivity in the Z = 12.67 Family

O. P. Isikaku-Ironkwe

The Z = 12.67 family of materials includes CaBeSi and NaAlSi which have been reported as non-superconducting and superconducting respectively. We show with an algorithm how to gene…

Searching for Superconductivity in Z=10 Family of Materials

O. P. Isikaku-Ironkwe

Binary and ternary materials with average atomic number (Z) of 10 have average valence electrons of 2.67. The material specific characterization dataset (MSCD) scheme, superconduct…

Lithium Beryllium Phosphide (LiBeP): A possible MgB2-like Superconductor

O. P. Isikaku-Ironkwe

The search for materials similar to magnesium diboride, MgB2, based on structure and electronic similarity did not produce close enough superconductors in terms of Tc. Changing the…

Beryllium Silicide Clusters, BenSin, Be2nSin (n = 1 - 4) and possible MgB2-like Superconductivity in some of them

O. P. Isikaku-Ironkwe

The symmetry of the Periodic Table makes it possible to predict certain properties of similar elements and compounds using one of them as a template. Magnesium diboride, MgB2, pres…

Is Lithium Sulfide a MgB2-like Superconductor?

O. P. Isikaku-Ironkwe

Lithium Sulfide, Li2S, is an anti-fluorite semiconductor with a band-gap of 3.865 eV. It also has exactly the same valence electron count, Ne, and atomic number, Z, as magnesium di…
