Investigation shows Ti₄Ir₂O has superior properties, while Zr₄Pd₂O and Zr₄Rh₂O show moderate to poor performance.
This study investigates the superconducting behavior of three η-carbide-type oxides: **Zr₄Pd₂O**, **Zr₄Rh₂O**, and **Ti₄Ir₂O**. Using theoretical anisotropic energy models and experimental upper critical field data, we correlate the directional anisotropy energy E^* with superconducting performance parameters such as the upper critical field μ₀Hc2(0), Pauli paramagnetic limit μ₀HP, transition temperature Tc, coherence length ξ, and penetration depth λ. The compound **Ti₄Ir₂O** emerges as an **excellent superconductor**, **Zr₄Pd₂O** as **moderate**, and **Zr₄Rh₂O** as the **least** performing in terms of superconducting enhancement.
