Abstract

Crystalline and amorphous structures are two of the most common solid-state phases. The combination of short-range disordered and long-range ordered structures at the atomic level is extremely rare. In article number 2002352, Xuliang Chen, Gufei Zhang, Zhaorong Yang, and co-workers develop a system with long-range ordered but short-range disordered building blocks by compressing a linear chain compound under high pressure. Thus a first case where superconductivity is hosted by a lattice with periodic but amorphous constituent atomic chains is demonstrated.
