Structural and Electronic Properties of Solid Hydrogen at Non-Hydrostatic Pressures

  • 摘要: 固体氢金属化所需的压强超过400 GPa,这种超高压条件给固体氢的实验制备和表征带来了极大的挑战。为此,利用第一性原理计算方法,系统研究了固体分子氢在非静水压强下的结构和物性演化。研究发现,在非静水高压条件下,固体分子氢具有良好的结构稳定性。非静水压条件将导致固体氢晶格的对称性破缺和电荷的重新分布,使固体分子氢在较低压强下(如压强低于300 GPa)转变为金属和超导体。据此提出了引入各向异性非静水压环境从而在较低压强下获得金属氢和高温超导氢的新思路。
