I am very interested in this from a molecular orbital basis. What is a hole? Is it just an unfilled molecular orbital? Is it "where the electrons ain't"?

I argue that this is incorrect. In order to satisfy conservation of mechanical momentum and of entropy of the universe in the superconductor to normal transition in the presence of a magnetic field it is necessary that the normal state charge carriers are holes. I will also review the empirical evidence in favor of the hypothesis that all superconductors are hole superconductors, and discuss the implications of this for the search for higher Tc superconductors. ----------------------- Another concept that might be in play in ultra dense hydrogen is nonequilibrium superconductivity through polaritons. Polaritons might take hold in the Bose-Fermi mixture formed by a cavity exciton-polariton condensate interacting with a two-dimensional electron system that forms on the surface of the ultra dense hydrogen electron cover layer. In a nonequilibrium superconductor, the process of superconductivity is pumped through the input of energy like a laser and the maximum temperature of formation of the superconductor state is a function of the density of polaritons in the polariton condensate and not from ambient temperature.
