Superconductivity of and polyhydrides
Ivan A. Kruglov, Dmitrii V. Semenok, Hao Song +8
We explore high-pressure phase stability and superconductivity of lanthanum hydrides (m=4-11,16). We predict stability of a hitherto unreported polyhydride -$LaH_{1…

Synthesis of clathrate cerium superhydride CeH9 below 100 GPa with atomic hydrogen sublattice
Nilesh P. Salke, M. Mahdi Davari Esfahani, Youjun Zhang +7
Hydrogen-rich superhydrides are believed to be very promising high-Tc superconductors as they are expected to mimic characteristics of metallic hydrogen. Recent experiments discove…

Prediction of a new ground state of superhard compound B6O at ambient conditions
Huafeng Dong, Artem R. Oganov, Qinggao Wang +7
Boron suboxide B6O, the hardest known oxide, has an R-3m crystal structure (α-B6O) that can be described as an oxygen-intercalated structure of α-boron, or, equivalently, as a cubi…
