Theoretical Predictions on Superconducting Phase above Room Temperature in Lutetium-Beryllium Hydrides at High Pressures

Abstract
High-pressure structural search was performed on the hydrogen-rich compound LuBeH8 at pressures up to 200 GPa. We found an structure that exhibits stability and superconductivity above 100 GPa. Our phonon dispersion, electronic band structure, and superconductivity analyses in the 100–200 GPa pressure range reveal a strong electron–phonon coupling in LuBeH8, while the superconducting critical temperature Tc shows a decreasing trend as the pressure increases, with Tc = 255 K at 200 GPa and maximal Tc = 355 K at 100 GPa. This study demonstrated the room-temperature superconductivity in -LuBeH8, thus enriching the family of ternary hydrides. These findings provide valuable guidance for identifying new high-temperature superconducting hydrides.
