摘要
The recently discovered ATi$_3$Bi$_5$ (A=Cs, Rb) exhibit intriguing quantum phenomena including superconductivity, electronic nematicity, and abundant topological states, which provide promising platforms for studying kagome superconductivity, band topology, and charge orders. In this work, we comprehensively study various properties of ATi$_3$Bi$_5$ including superconductivity under pressure and doping, band topology under pressure, thermal conductivity, heat capacity, electrical resistance, and spin Hall conductivity (SHC) using first-principles calculations. Calculated superconducting transition temperature ($\mathrm{ T_{c}}$) of CsTi$_3$Bi$_5$ and RbTi$_3$Bi$_5$ at ambient pressure are about 1.85 and 1.92K. When subject to pressure, $\mathrm{ T_{c}}$ of CsTi$_3$Bi$_5$ exhibits a special valley and dome shape, which arises from quasi-two-dimensional to three-dimensional isotropic compression within the context of an overall decreasing trend. Furthermore, $\mathrm{ T_{c}}$ of RbTi$_3$Bi$_5$ can be effectively enhanced up to 3.09K by tuning the kagome van Hove singularities (VHSs) and flat band through doping. Pressure can also induce abundant topological surface states at the Fermi energy ($\mathrm{E}_{\mathrm{F}}$) and tune VHSs across $\mathrm{E}_{\mathrm{F}}$. Additionally, our transport calculations are in excellent agreement with recent experiments, confirming the absence of charge density wave. Notably, SHC of CsTi$_3$Bi$_5$ can reach as large as 226$ \hbar\cdot (e\cdot \Omega \cdot cm) ^{-1} $ at $\mathrm{E}_{\mathrm{F}}$. Our work provides a timely and detailed analysis of the rich physical properties for ATi$_3$Bi$_5$, offering valuable insights for further explorations and understandings on these intriguing superconducting materials.
