Discovery of a Superconducting Cu-Bi Intermetallic Compound by High-Pressure Synthesis

Journal Article Clarke, Samantha M. ; Walsh, James P. S. ; Amsler, Maximilian ; ... - Angewandte Chemie (International Edition)

A new intermetallic compound, the first to be structurally identified in the Cu–Bi binary system, is reported herein. This compound is accessed by high-pressure reaction of the elements. Its detailed characterization, physical property measurements, and ab initio calculations are described. The commensurate crystal structure of Cu₁₁Bi₇ is a unique variation of the NiAs structure type. Temperature-dependent electrical resistivity and heat capacity measurements reveal a bulk superconducting transition at T_c=1.36 K. Density functional theory calculations further demonstrate that Cu₁₁Bi₇ can be stabilized (relative to decomposition into the elements) at high pressure and temperature. These results highlight the ability of high-pressure synthesesmore »« less

Superconducting Phases of Phosphorus Hydride Under Pressure: Stabilization by Mobile Molecular Hydrogen

Journal Article Bi, Tiange ; Miller, Daniel P. ; Shamp, Andrew ; ... - Angewandte Chemie (International Edition)

Abstract At 80 GPa, phases with the PH ₂ stoichiometry, which are composed of simple cubic like phosphorus layers capped with hydrogen atoms and layers of H ₂ molecules, are predicted to be important species contributing to the recently observed superconductivity in compressed phosphine. The electron–phonon coupling in these phases results from the motions of the phosphorus atoms and the hydrogen atoms bound to them. The role of the mobile H ₂ layers is to decrease the Coulomb repulsion between the negatively charged hydrogen atoms capping the phosphorus layers. An insulating PH ₅ phase, the structure and bonding of which ismore »« less

Prediction of superconducting iron–bismuth intermetallic compounds at high pressure

Journal Article Amsler, Maximilian ; Naghavi, S. Shahab ; Wolverton, Chris - Chemical Science

The synthesis of materials in high-pressure experiments has recently attracted increasing attention, especially since the discovery of record breaking superconducting temperatures in the sulfur–hydrogen and other hydrogen-rich systems. Commonly, the initial precursor in a high pressure experiment contains constituent elements that are known to form compounds at ambient conditions, however the discovery of high-pressure phases in systems immiscible under ambient conditions poses an additional materials design challenge. We performed an extensive multi component ab initio structural search in the immiscible Fe–Bi system at high pressure and report on the surprising discovery of two stable compounds at pressures above ≈36 GPa,more »« less

Dense superconducting phases of copper-bismuth at high pressure

Journal Article Amsler, Maximilian ; Wolverton, Chris - Physical Review Materials

Although copper and bismuth do not form any compounds at ambient conditions, two intermetallics, CuBi and Cu₁₁Bi₇, were recently synthesized at high pressures. Here we report on the discovery of additional copper-bismuth phases at elevated pressures with high densities from ab initio calculations. In particular, a Cu2Bi compound is found to be thermodynamically stable at pressures above 59 GPa, crystallizing in the cubic Laves structure. In strong contrast to Cu₁₁Bi₇ and CuBi, cubic Cu₂Bi does not exhibit any voids or channels. Since the bismuth lone pairs in cubic Cu₂Bi are stereochemically inactive, the constituent elements can be closely packedmore »« less
