Chemical Control of Electronic Structure and Superconductivity in Layered Borides and Borocarbides: Understanding the Absence of Superconductivity in LiBC.

The synthetic search for materials related to the 39 K superconductor MgB has been difficult. The most promising theoretical suggestion, hole doping of LiBC, does not lead to a new superconductor. We show here that a combination of density functional theory (DFT) calculations, materials synthesis, a...
