1. IntroductionClick to copy section linkSection link copied!Ligand-stabilized atomically precise noble metal nanoclusters, comprising a metal atomic core and a ligand molecular shell, have attracted considerable attention in both fundamental research and practical applications. (1−3) Their atom-sensitive performance provides insights into the structure–property relationships of nano and bulk materials at the atomistic level.

It is a long-thought proposal that dense light-element molecular hydrides, such as diborane (B2H6) and methane (CH4), offer an ideal platform to search for phonon-mediated superconductors. However, these hydrides are often unstable under sufficiently high pressure, e.g., B2H6 decomposed into BH and H2 at pressures of above 153 GPa, which are unlikely to exhibit high superconductivity.

The emergent structure under high pressure introduces a distinctive lattice arrangement, deviating from conventional configurations and offering a unique landscape for exploring intriguing properties, especially in the domain of superconductivity. Here, we have systematically investigated the structural evolution and electrical properties of α-SnS under high pressure.
