Design of superconducting compounds at lower pressure via intercalating XH4 molecules(X=B,C,and N)into fcc lattices
Recently,many encouraging experimental advances have been achieved in ternary hydrides superconductors under high pressure.However,the extreme pressure required is indeed a challenge for practical application,which promotes a further exploration for high temperature(Tc)superconductors at relatively low pressure.Herein,we performed a systematic theoretical investigation on a series of ternary hydrides with stoichiometry AX2H8,which is constructed by interacting molecular XH4(X=B,C,and N)into the fcc metal A lattice under low pressure of 0-150 GPa.We uncovered five compounds which are dynamically stable below 100 GPa,e.g.,AcB2H8(25 GPa),LaB2H8(40 GPa),RbC2H8(40 GPa),CsC2H8(60 GPa),and SrC2H8(65 GPa).Among them,AcB2H8,which is energetically stable above 2.5 GPa,exhibits the highest Tc of 32 K at 25 GPa.The superconductivity originates mainly from the coupling between the electron of Ac atoms and the associated low-frequency phonons,distinct from the previous typical hydrides with H-derived superconductivity.Our results shed light on the future exploration of superconductivity among ternary compounds at low pressure.
