Recently, an extremely high superconducting temperature (Tc) of ~200 K has been reported in the sulfur hydride system above 100 GPa. This result is supported by theoretical predictions and verified experimentally. The crystal structure of the superconducting phase was also identified experimentally, confirming the theoretically predicted structure as well as a decomposition mechanism from H2S to H3S+S. Even though nuclear resonant scattering has been successfully used to provide magnetic evidence for a superconducting state, a direct measurement of the important Meissner effect is still lacking. Here we report in situ alternating-current magnetic susceptibility measurements on compressed H2S under high pressures. It is shown that superconductivity suddenly appears at 117 GPa and that Tc reaches 183 K at 149 GPa before decreasing monotonically with a further increase in pressure. This evolution agrees with both theoretical calculations and earlier experimental measurements. The idea of conventional high temperature superconductivity in hydrogen-dominant compounds has thus been realized in the sulfur hydride system under hydrostatic pressure, opening further exciting perspectives for possibly realizing room temperature superconductivity in hydrogen-based compounds.

A long-standing theoretical prediction is that in clean, nodal unconventional superconductors the magnetic penetration depth $lambda$, at zero temperature, varies linearly with magnetic field. This non-linear Meissner effect is an equally important m
anifestation of the nodal state as the well studied linear-in-$T$ dependence of $lambda$, but has never been convincingly experimentally observed. Here we present measurements of the nodal superconductors CeCoIn$_5$ and LaFePO which clearly show this non-linear Meissner effect. We further show how the effect of a small dc magnetic field on $lambda(T)$ can be used to distinguish gap nodes from non-nodal deep gap minima. Our measurements of KFe$_2$As$_2$ suggest that this material has such a non-nodal state.
Recently, phenyl molecules have been reported to exhibit Meissner effect mainly from magnetization measurements. Realizing zero-resistivity state in these materials seems a challenge due to many practical difficulties but is required to characterize
the existence of superconductivity. By choosing potassium-doped tris(2-methylphenyl)bismuthine as an example, we perform temperature-dependent magnetic susceptibility and resistivity measurements at different magnetic fields and pressures. The solid evidence for supporting superconductivity is achieved from the obtained Meissner effect and zero resistivity with the critical temperature ($T_c$) of 3.6 K at atmosphere pressure. Upon compression, we observe the gradual evolution of superconductivity from its initial phase with a parabolic behavior of $T_{c}$ to the second one with almost constant value of $T_{c}$ of 7 K. The 7 K phase seems a common feature for these newly discovered phenyl-based superconductors.
Recent reports of the detecting of ferromagnetism and superconductivity in ruthenium-cuprates have aroused great interest. Unfortunately, whether the two antagonistic phenomena coexist in the same space in the compounds remains unresolved. By employi
ng the magneto-optical-imaging technique, ferromagnetism and superconductivity were indeed directly observed to coexist in the same space in RuSr2(Gd0.7Ce0.3)2Cu2O10 within the experimental resolution of ~ 10 (mu)m. The observation sets a length scale limit for models proposed to account for the competition between ferromagnetism and superconductivity, especially d-wave superconductivity, in this interesting class of compounds.
The hole concentration (p)(delta), the transition temperature Tc, the intragrain penetration depth lambda, and the Meissner effect were measured for annealed RuSr2(Gd,Ce)2Cu2O10+delta samples. The intragrain superconducting transition temperature Tc}
varied from 17 to 40 K while the p changed by only 0.03 holes/CuO2. The intragrain superfluid-density 1/lambda^2 and the diamagnetic drop of the field-cooled magnetization across Tc (the Meissner effect), however, increased more than 10 times. All of these findings are in disagreement with both the Tc vs. p and the Tc vs. 1/lambda^2 correlations proposed for homogeneous cuprates, but are in line with a possible phase-separation and the granularity associated with it.
The experimental realization of high-temperature superconductivity in compressed hydrides H$_3$S and LaH$_{10}$ at high pressures over 150 GPa has aroused great interest in reducing the stabilization pressure of superconducting hydrides. For cerium h
ydride CeH$_9$ recently synthesized at 80$-$100 GPa, our first-principles calculations reveal that the strongly hybridized electronic states of Ce 4$f$ and H 1$s$ orbitals produce the topologically nontrivial Dirac nodal lines around the Fermi energy $E_F$, which are protected by crystalline symmetries. By hole doping, $E_F$ shifts down toward the topology-driven van Hove singularity to significantly increase the density of states, which in turn raises a superconducting transition temperature $T_c$ from 74 K up to 136 K at 100 GPa. The hole-doping concentration can be controlled by the incorporation of Ce$^{3+}$ ions with varying their percentages, which can be well electronically miscible with Ce atoms in the CeH$_9$ matrix because both Ce$^{3+}$ and Ce behave similarly as cations. Therefore, the interplay of symmetry, band topology, and hole doping contributes to enhance $T_c$ in compressed CeH$_9$. This mechanism to enhance $T_c$ can also be applicable to another superconducting rare earth hydride LaH$_{10}$.
