In this research paper I have thoroughly described about the topic “Effect of External Pressure and Temperature on Alkali-Halide Superconductors.” The effects of external pressure and temperature on alkali-halide superconductors have shown a fascinating physical interaction with far-reaching ramifications. Alkali-halide superconductors, which have higher critical temperatures (Tc) than typical superconductors, react strongly to environmental effects. Under pressure, these materials' Tc increases significantly, forming new superconducting phases. Complex crystal structure and electronic property changes accompany pressure-induced superconducting tuning. By manipulating pressure and temperature, complicated phase diagrams and quantum critical points may be seen, revealing mysterious quantum processes. These discoveries improve our knowledge of superconductivity and might benefit high-field magnets, power transmission, quantum computing, and energy-efficient technology. Alkali-halide superconductors under external circumstances continue to fascinate researchers in materials science and condensed matter physics, enabling technological advances and a deeper knowledge of basic physics.
