Abstract

Carbon-based superconductors can be roughly categorized into two groups. The first includes relatively new superconductors, such as boron-doped diamond, graphite-intercalated compounds (GIC), carbon nanotube (CNT) superconductors and fullerene superconductors. Here, we review relatively "old materials," which are materials that can be described within the "BCS (Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer) frame." The contents of this chapter are as follows: 1. MX-type compounds (B1-type superconductors and SiC) 2. MC₂ compounds (YC₂ and LaC₂) 3. Ln₂C₃ (La₂C₃ and Y₂C₃) 4. Boron carbide (RNi₂B₂C and YB₂C₂) We introduce the present experimental and theoretical understanding of carbonbased superconductors.
