Pressure-stabilized unconventional stoichiometric yttrium sulfides

Yttrium sulfides are found to exhibit rich phase diagram and diverse properties under pressures. Here, we systematically investigate the stability of binary Y-S system up to 50 GPa using first-principles swarm-intelligence structure search. We identify seven hitherto unknown stoichiometries (Y_{7}S_...
