High pressure effect on the electrical properties of NiS2

A semiconductor-metal transition in the electrical resistance of NiS₂, which has been suggested to be a Mott transition, is observed with decreasing temperature under pressure up to 44 kbar. The transition temperature increases with pressure with a slope of $\text{dT}\text{dP}\text{= 6 ± 1 K/kbar}$. The activation energy in a semiconducting region is found to decrease with increasing pressure and to vanish at about 46 kbar. The critical pressure and temperature are predicted to be 46 ± 2 kbar and 350 ± 20 K.     

1H NMR study of [N(CH3)4]2ZnCI4 at high pressures and low temperatures

Wide-line proton NMR studies on polycrystalline tetramethylammonium tetrachlorozincate have been carried out at high hydrostatic pressures up to 15 kbar in the temperature range 77-300 K and at ambient pressure down to 4.2 K. A second-moment transition is observed to occur starting around 161 K, the temperature for the V-VI phase transition. This transition temperature is seen to have a negative pressure coefficient up to 2 kbar, beyond which it changes sign. At 77 K the second moment decreases to 4 kbar and then increases again as a function of pressure. The results are explained in terms of the dynamics of the N(CH₃)₄ groups.     

Pressure induced superconductivity in CaFe2As2

CaFe2As2 has been found to be exceptionally sensitive to the application of hydrostatic pressure and can be tuned to reveal all the salient features associated with FeAs superconductivity without introducing any disorder. The ambient pressure, 170 K, structural/magnetic, first-order phase transition is suppressed to 128 K by 3.5 kbar. At 5.5 kbar a new transition is detected at 104 K, increasing to above 300 K by 19 kbar. A low temperature, superconducting dome (T(c) approximately 12 K) is centered around 5 kbar, extending down to 2.3 kbar and up to 8.6 kbar. This superconducting phase appears to exist when the low pressure transition is suppressed sufficiently, but before the high pressure transition has reduced the resistivity too dramatically.     

Pressure Study on New Superconducting Germanium Clathrates

We investigate the low temperature properties of the recently discovered clathrates Ba 6 Ge 25 and Na 2 Ba 4 Ge 25 by tuning both materials with hydrostatic pressure. At ambient pressure, Ba 6 Ge 25 undergoes a two-step structural phase transition between 230 K and 180 K from metallic behavior to a high-resistivity state. A superconducting transition occurs at T_{C}\approx 0.24\,\hbox{K} out of the resulting bad metal ( \rho_{0}\approx 1.5\,\hbox{m}\Omega\;\hbox{cm} ). With increasing pressure, the structural phase transition is shifted to lower temperature but T C increases drastically. T C reaches a maximum value of 3.85 K at the critical pressure p_{C}\approx 2.8\,\hbox{GPa} , where the structural distortion is completely suppressed and the system exhibits metallic behavior. On replacing 1/3 of the Ba atoms with Na (Na 2 Ba 4 Ge 25 ), no structural transformation is observed below room temperature, and the superconducting transition temperature is higher (T_{C}(p = 0) \approx 1.05\,\hbox{K}) than in the undoped case at ambient pressure but decreases slightly with increasing pressure.     

Pressure-induced magnetic transition in Fe2P

The weak field ac susceptibility and the resistivity of Fe₂P single crystals were measured as functions of temperature from 4.2–300 K and as functions of hydrostatic pressures up to 20 kbar, using a newly designed clamp-type pressure cell. The Curie temperature, and the first-order transition temperature, decreased rapidly with increasing pressure, and ferromagnetism vanished at about 13 kbar at 0 K. A second-order transition temperature, as well as the first-order transition, appeared in the region below 170 K and above 5 kbar (triple point) and a new pressure-induced magnetic phase was found. The phase is proposed to be antiferromagnetic for reasons discussed in the paper.     

冲击波诱导Nd_2Fe_(14)B磁相变的理论计算研究

Super-pressed and super-cooled (?) P(EO)20LiBETI

High pressure conductivity measurements have been carried out on P(EO)₂₀LiBETI from 295 K to 368 K. The decrease of electrical conductivity with pressure is larger in the partially crystalline phase (low temperature and low pressure or high temperature and high pressure) than in the fully amorphous phase (high temperature and low pressure). It is found that if the phase transition is approached from the crystalline phase (decreasing pressure), the pressure of the phase transition varies from 0 to 0.23 GPa as the temperature increases from 336 K to 358 K. The shift of the phase transition temperature with pressure is approximately the same as the shift of the glass transition temperature with pressure for pure PEO. This can be understood in terms of the defect diffusion model. If the material is above 336 K and is in the fully amorphous phase, after pressure is increased above the critical pressure, the material remains in the amorphous phase for extended periods of time before transforming to the partially crystalline phase. This is reminiscent of a super-pressed state but may be an indication of slow crystallization kinetics.     

Phase Transition and Melting Curves of Calcium Fluoride via Molecular Dynamics Simulations

The phase transition and melting curves of CaF2 are investigated by using the general utility lattice programme （CULP） via the shell model with molecular dynamics method. By calculating the entropy H （at OK） and Cibbs free energy G^＊ （at 30OK）, we find that the phase transition pressure from the face-centred cubic （fee） structure to the orthorhombic structure is 11.40 CPa and 9.33 CPa at OK and 300K, respectively. The modified melting point of the fee CaF2 is in the range of 1650-1733K at OCPa. All these results are well consistent with the available experimental data and other theoretical results. We also obtain that the melting temperature of high pressure phase is 990-1073 K at 10 CPa. Moreover, the temperature dependences of the elastic constants Cij, bulk module B and shear module G are also predicted.     

Phase transitions in uranium dioxide at high pressures and temperatures

The melting curve is plotted for uranium dioxide with fluorite structure in a pressure range from ?2.5 to +100 GPa. This curve has a peak at the point 3348 K, 6 GPa, and has a negative derivative at high pressures. The pressure corresponding to a polymorphic transition of uranium dioxide (37 GPa) at a temperature of 1015 K is determined. The slope of the equilibrium curve of the polymorphic transition in UO₂ in the temperature range 300–1000 K is ? 56 K/GPa.     

Pressure-induced phase transition(s) in KMnF3 and the importance of the excess volume for phase transitions in perovskite structures

We report a pressure-dependent investigation of KMnF(3) by x-ray diffraction up to 30 GPa. The results are discussed in the framework of Landau theory and in relation to the isostructural phase transition in SrTiO(3). The phase transition temperature near 186 K in KMnF(3) shifts to room temperature at a critical pressure of P(c) = 3.4 GPa; the pressure dependence of the transition point follows ΔP(c)/ΔT(c) = 0.0315 GPa K(-1). The transition becomes second order under high pressure, close to the tricritical point. The phase transition is determined by the rotation of MnF(6) octahedra with their simultaneous expansion along the rotation axis. The rotation angle was found to increase to 10.5° at 24 GPa. An additional anomaly was observed at higher pressure around 25 GPa, suggesting a further phase transition.
