(color online) The phase diagram of (Sr_1−xCa_x)₃Ir₄Sn₁₃ (x = 0, 0.5, 1) and Ca₃RH₄Sn₁₃. T* and T_s are obtained from NMR spectral line width, 1/T₁T, and the Knight shift. For Sr₃Ir₄Sn₁₃, the anomaly above T_s can be identified from 1/T₁T but less clear in FWHM and K, thus we plot T* = T_s ± 10 K. The yellow region is a crossover rather than a new phase. The correspondence between the pressure and the composition is inferred from Refs. [18] and [19].
