Search for high-temperature superconductivity in the Hf-H and Lu-H binary systems at multimegabar pressures

We aim to investigate potential new phases of hydrogen-rich compounds in the Hf-H, Sc-H, and Lu-H binary systems, focusing on those with promising high critical temperatures of superconductivity under high pressures ranging from 200 to 400 GPa. Samples will be prepared using diamond anvil cells, with appropriate leads deposited for subsequent four-probe electrical transport measurements.
