This review provides a comprehensive overview of the challenges and potential solutions in the quest for high-temperature superconductivity using hydrogen-rich materials. Traditional superconductors often face limitations in terms of critical transition temperatures (Tc) and stability under high pressures. However, hydrogen-rich compounds offer promising avenues due to their strong electron-phonon coupling, elevated Debye temperatures, and high electronic density. Recent discoveries, such as H3S, have further invigorated the field. While an excess of H2-like units can adversely affect Tc, clathrate structures like CaH6 and YH6 present viable alternatives by fostering high symmetry. Rare earth hydrides, notable for their electron-donating capabilities, have undergone extensive testing. Isotope effect studies, as exemplified by LaH10 and LaD10, highlight the critical role of hydrogen vibrations in superconductivity. Ternary superhydrides incorporating dopant elements aim to reduce the pressure requirements for stability, with LaBeH8 emerging as a promising candidate, exhibiting a Tc of 110 K at 80 GPa. The review concludes by outlining future research directions, such as the incorporation of small-radius atoms to increase hydrogen content, a deeper understanding of the role of symmetry, and addressing challenges related to vibrational modes and structural stability.
