This review shows the highlights of a 4-year-long research project supported by the
Japanese Government to explore new superconducting materials and relevant functional …

The layered materials, two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have
attracted increasing attention because of their unique properties in the atomic structures …

The evolution of electrical transport properties, the electronic band structure, and lattice
dynamics of PdS e 2 is studied under high pressure. The emergence of superconductivity is …

We report an unusual pressure-induced superconducting state that coexists with an
antiferromagnetic ordering of Eu2+ moments and shows a large upper critical field …

Dimensionality of materials is one of the most important factors in determining their
fundamental properties.[1–3] Recent researches have shown that one material with the …

Rational preparation of materials by design is a major goal of inorganic, solid-state, and
materials chemists alike. Oftentimes, the use of nonmetallurgical reactions (eg …

The pressure effect on crystal structures, lattice vibrations, and electrical transport properties
of Pd S 2 and NiS e 2 were studied under high pressures of up to∼ 50 GPa using Raman …

We report the discovery of a bulk superconducting transition at 3.4 K in the ternary
phosphide, ScIrP, which crystallizes in a hexagonal ZrNiAl-type structure without spatial …

The polycrystalline MO2's (HP-PdF2-type MO2, M= Rh, Os, Pt) with high-pressure PdF2
compounds were successfully synthesized under high-pressure conditions for the first time …

MPX 3 (M= metals; X= S or Se) represents a large family of van der Waals (vdW) materials
featuring PP dimers of∼ 2.3 Å separation. A dramatic alteration of its electrical transport …
