Upon heating rubidium monohydride embedded in H$_2$ at a pressure of 18 GPa, we form RbH$_9$−I, which is stable upon decompression down to 8.7 GPa, the lowest stability pressure of any known superhydride. At 22 GPa, another polymorph, RbH$_9$−II is synthesised at high temperature. Unique to the Rb-H system among binary metal hydrides is that further compression does not promote the formation of polyhydrides with higher hydrogen content. Instead, heating above 87 GPa yields RbH$_5$, which exhibits two polymorphs (RbH$_5$−I and RbH$_5$−II). All of the crystal structures comprise a complex network of quasimolecular H$_2$ units and H$^−$ anions, with RbH$_5$providing the first experimental evidence of linear H$^−_3$ anions.}, cin = {DOOR ; HAS-User / FS DOOR-User}, ddc = {530}, cid = {I:(DE-H253)HAS-User-20120731 / $I:(DE-H253)FS_DOOR-User-20241023$}, pnm = {6G3 - PETRA III (DESY) (POF4-6G3) / MetElOne - The Metallization Conditions of Element One (948895) / FS-Proposal: I-20220830 (I-20220830)}, pid = {G:(DE-HGF)POF4-6G3 / G:(EU-Grant)948895 / G:(DE-H253)I-20220830}, experiment = {EXP:(DE-H253)P-P02.2-20150101}, typ = {PUB:(DE-HGF)16}, pubmed = {pmid:40446281}, doi = {10.1103/PhysRevLett.134.196102}, url = {https://bib-pubdb1.desy.de/record/637199}, }
