Lanthanum decahydride is a polyhydride or superhydride compound of lanthanum and hydrogen (LaH10) that has shown evidence of being a high-temperature superconductor. It was the first metal superhydride to be theoretically predicted,[2][3] synthesized,[4] and experimentally confirmed[5] to superconduct at near room-temperatures. It has a superconducting transition temperature TC around 250 K (−23 °C; −10 °F) at a pressure of 150 gigapascals (22×10^6 psi), and its synthesis required pressures above approximately 160 gigapascals (23×10^6 psi).[6][7]

Synopsis

[edit]

Since its discovery in 2019,[5] the superconducting properties of LaH10 and other lanthanum-based superhydrides have been experimentally confirmed in multiple independent experiments.[8][9][10][11] The compound exhibits a Meissner effect below the superconducting transition temperature.[12] A cubic form can be synthesized at 1,000 K (730 °C; 1,340 °F),[6] and a hexagonal crystal structure can be formed at room temperature.[13] Further reports indicate Tc is increased with nitrogen doping,[14] and decreased with the introduction of magnetic impurities.[15]

The cubic form has each lanthanum atom surrounded by 32 hydrogen atoms, which form the vertices of an 18-faced shape called a chamfered cube.[16]

A similar compound, lanthanum boron octahydride, was computationally predicted to be a superconductor at 126 K (−147 °C; −233 °F) and pressure 50 gigapascals (7.3×10^6 psi).[17]
