We explore the behavior of the holographic superconductors at zero temperature for a charged scalar field coupled to a Maxwell field in higher-dimensional AdS soliton spacetime via analytical way. In the probe limit, we obtain the critical chemical potentials increase linearly as a total dimension d grows up. We find that the critical exponent for condensation operator is obtained as 1/2 independently of d, and the charge density is linearly related to the chemical potential near the critical point. Furthermore, we consider a slightly generalized setup the Einstein–Power–Maxwell field theory, and find that the critical exponent for condensation operator is given as 1/(4−2n) in terms of a power parameter n of the Power–Maxwell field, and the charge density is proportional to the chemical potential to the power of 1/(2−n).
