Abstract | The recent discovery of superconductivity up to 32 K in the pressurized MoB2 reignites the interest in exploring high-T-c superconductors in transition-metal diborides. Inspired by that work, we turn our attention to the 5d transition-metal diborides. Here we systematically investigate the responses of both structural and physical properties of WB2 and ReB2 to external pressure, which possess different types of boron layers. Similar to MoB2, the pressure-induced superconductivity was also observed in WB2 above 60 GPa with a maximum T-c of 15 K at 100 GPa, while no superconductivity was detected in ReB2 in this pressure range. Interestingly, the structures at ambient pressure for both WB2 and ReB2 persist to high pressure without structural phase transitions. Theoretical calculations suggest that the ratio of flat boron layers in this class of transition-metal diborides may be crucial for the appearance of high T-c. The combined theoretical and experimental results highlight the effect of the geometry of boron layers on superconductivity and shed light on the exploration of novel high-T-c superconductors in borides. |
