Superconducting nickelates appear to be difficult to synthesize. Since the chemical reduction of ABO_{3} [rare earth (A), transition metal (B)] with CaH_{2} may result in both ABO_{2} and ABO_{2}H, we calculate the topotactic H binding energy by density functional theory (DFT). We find intercalating H to be energetically favorable for LaNiO_{2} but not for Sr-doped NdNiO_{2}. This has dramatic consequences for the electronic structure as determined by DFT+dynamical mean field theory: that of 3d… CONTINUE READING
