Observation of superconductivity at 30∼46K in AxFe2Se2 (A = Li, Na, Ba, Sr, Ca, Yb, and Eu)

TLDR
It is demonstrated that a series of superconductors with enhanced Tc = 30∼46 K can be obtained by intercalating metals, Li, Na, Ba, Sr, Ca, Yb, and Eu in between FeSe layers by the ammonothermal method at room temperature, providing a new starting point for studying the properties of thesesuperconductors and an effective synthetic route for the exploration of new superconductor exploration.
