The crystal structure and electrical resistance of the structurally-layered EuFe2As2 have been studied up to 70 GPa and down to temperature of 10 K, using a synchrotron x-ray source and the designer diamond anvils. The room-temperature compression of the tetragonal phase of EuFe2As2 (I4/mmm) results in an increase in the a-axis and a rapid decrease in c-axis with increasing pressure. This anomalous compression reaches a maximum at 8 GPa and the tetragonal lattice behaves normal above 10 GPa with a nearly constant c/a axial ratio. The rapid rise in superconducting transition temperature (Tc) to 41 K with increasing pressure is correlated to this anomalous compression and a decrease in Tc is observed above 10 GPa. We present P-V data or equation of state of EuFe2As2 in both the ambient tetragonal phase and the high pressure collapsed tetragonal phase to 70 GPa.

We studied the temperature-pressure phase diagram of EuFe2As2 by measurements of the electrical resistivity. The antiferromagnetic spin-density-wave transition at T_0 associated with the FeAs-layers is continuously suppressed with increasing pressure
, while the antiferromagnetic ordering temperature of the Eu 2+ moments seems to be nearly pressure independent up to 2.6 GPa. Above 2 GPa a sharp drop of the resistivity, rho(T), indicates the onset of superconductivity at T_c approx 29.5 K. Surprisingly, on further reducing the temperature rho(T) is increasing again and exhibiting a maximum caused by the ordering of the Eu 2+ moments, a behavior which is reminiscent of re-entrant superconductivity as it is observed in the ternary Chevrel phases or in the rare-earth nickel borocarbides.
The flourishing metal clathrate superhydrides is a class of recently discovered materials that possess record breaking near-room-temperature superconductivity at high pressures, because hydrogen atoms behave similarly to the atomic metallic hydrogen.
While series of rare-earth clathrate superhydrides have been realized, the superconductivity of the first proposed clathrate calcium superhydride that initiates this major discovery has not been observed yet and remains of fundamental interest in the field of high-pressure physics. Here, we report the synthesis of calcium superhydrides from calcium and ammonia borane precursors with a maximum superconducting temperature of 215 K at 172 GPa, confirmed by the observation of zero resistance through four-probe electrical transport measurements. An exceedingly high upper critical magnetic field was estimated to be 203 T at zero temperature in the WHH model. Inferred from the synchrotron X-ray diffraction, together with the consistency of superconducting transition temperature and equation of states between experiment and theory, sodalite-like clathrate CaH6 is one of the best candidates for this high-Tc CaHx.
Resistivity and Hall effect measurements of EuFe$_2$As$_2$ up to 3.2,GPa indicate no divergence of quasiparticle effective mass at the pressure $P_mathrm{c}$ where the magnetic and structural transition disappears. This is corroborated by analysis of
the temperature ($T$) dependence of the upper critical field. $T$-linear resistivity is observed at pressures slightly above $P_mathrm{c}$. The scattering rates for both electrons and holes are shown to be approximately $T$-linear. When a field is applied, a $T^2$ dependence is recovered, indicating that the origin of the $T$-linear dependence is spin fluctuations.
We have investigated structural and magnetic phase transitions under high pressures in a quaternary rare earth transition metal arsenide oxide NdCoAsO compound that is isostructural to high temperature superconductor NdFeAsO. Four-probe electrical re
sistance measurements carried out in a designer diamond anvil cell show that the ferromagnetic Curie temperature and anti-ferromagnetic Neel temperature increase with an increase in pressure. High pressure x-ray diffraction studies using a synchrotron source show a structural phase transition from a tetragonal phase to a new crystallographic phase at a pressure of 23 GPa at 300 K. The NdCoAsO sample remained anti-ferromagnetic and non-superconducting to temperatures down to 10 K and to the highest pressure achieved in this experiment of 53 GPa. A P-T phase diagram for NdCoAsO is presented to a pressure of 53 GPa and low temperatures of 10 K.
Recently, C. M. Pepin textit{et al.} [Science textbf{357}, 382 (2017)] reported the formation of several new iron polyhydrides FeH$_x$ at pressures in the megabar range, and spotted FeH$_5$, which forms above 130 GPa, as a potential high-tc supercon
ductor, because of an alleged layer of dense metallic hydrogen. Shortly after, two studies by A.~Majumdar textit{et al.} [Phys. Rev. B textbf{96}, 201107 (2017)] and A.~G.~Kvashnin textit{et al.} [J. Phys. Chem. C textbf{122}, 4731 (2018)] based on {em ab initio} Migdal-Eliashberg theory seemed to independently confirm such a conjecture. We conversely find, on the same theoretical-numerical basis, that neither FeH$_5$ nor its precursor, FeH$_3$, shows any conventional superconductivity and explain why this is the case. We also show that superconductivity may be attained by transition-metal polyhydrides in the FeH$_3$ structure type by adding more electrons to partially fill one of the Fe--H hybrid bands (as, e.g., in NiH$_3$). Critical temperatures, however, will remain low because the $d$--metal bonding, and not the metallic hydrogen, dominates the behavior of electrons and phonons involved in the superconducting pairing in these compounds.
