We have studied CaWO4 under compression using Ne as pressure-transmitting medium at room temperature by means of synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction. We have found that CaWO4 beyond 8.8 GPa transforms from its low-pressure tetragonal structure (scheelite) into a monoclinic structure (fergusonite). The high-pressure phase remains stable up to 28 GPa and the low-pressure phase is totally recovered after full decompression. The pressure dependence of the unit-cell parameters, as well as the pressure–volume equation of state, has been determined for both phases. Compared with previous studies, we found in our quasi-hydrostatic experiments a different behavior for the unit-cell parameters of the fergusonite phase and a different transition pressure. These facts suggest that deviatoric stresses influence on the high-pressure structural behavior of CaWO4 as previously found in related compounds. The reported experiments also provide information on the pressure dependence of interatomic bond distances, shedding light on the transition mechanisms.  相似文献

The effect of pressure on the crystalline structure and superconducting transition temperature (T(c)) of the 111-type Na(1-x)FeAs system using in situ high-pressure synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction and diamond anvil cell techniques is studied. A pressure-induced tetragonal to tetragonal isostructural phase transition was found. The systematic evolution of the FeAs(4) tetrahedron as a function of pressure based on Rietveld refinements on the powder X-ray diffraction patterns was obtained. The nonmonotonic T(c)(P) behavior of Na(1-x)FeAs is found to correlate with the anomalies of the distance between the anion (As) and the iron layer as well as the bond angle of As-Fe-As for the two tetragonal phases. This behavior provides the key structural information in understanding the origin of the pressure dependence of T(c) for 111-type iron pnictide superconductors. A pressure-induced structural phase transition is also observed at 20 GPa.  相似文献

The crystal structure of the high-pressure phase of hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine (gamma-RDX), which is stable above 4 GPa at room temperature, was investigated by using infrared spectroscopy and powder X-ray diffraction measurements followed by Rietveld refinements using a diamond anvil cell (DAC). Although gamma and alpha phases were found to belong to the same space group Pbca, they exhibited a different crystal packing. The molecular structure of the gamma phase exhibited the same conformation as that of the alpha phase; however, the torsion angles of N-NO2 changed marginally.  相似文献

We have studied the high-pressure structural behavior of zinc ferrite (ZnFe2O4) nanoparticles by powder X-ray diffraction measurements up to 47 GPa. We found that the cubic spinel structure of ZnFe2O4 remains up to 33 GPa and a phase transition is induced beyond this pressure. The high-pressure phase is indexed to an orthorhombic CaMn2O4-type structure. Upon decompression the low- and high-pressure phases coexist. The compressibility of both structures was also investigated. We have observed that the lattice parameters of the high-pressure phase behave anisotropically upon compression. Further, we predict possible phase transition around 55 GPa. For comparison, we also studied the compression behavior of magnetite (Fe3O4) nanoparticles by X-ray diffraction up to 23 GPa. Spinel-type ZnFe2O4 and Fe3O4 nanoparticles have a bulk modulus of 172 (20) GPa and 152 (9) GPa, respectively. This indicates that in both cases the nanoparticles do not undergo a Hall-Petch strengthening.  相似文献

Two high-pressure phases of a potassium gallosilicate with a gismondine framework (K-GaSi-GIS) were characterized using Rietveld refinements of in-situ high-pressure, high-resolution synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction data. The observed response of the K-GaSi-GIS framework under hydrostatic pressure is a gradual flattening of the so-called "double crankshaft" structural chain units. At pressures below 1.0(1) GPa, additional water molecules from the hydrostatic pressure-transmitting medium are inserted into the potassium-water guest network ("pressure-induced hydration") resulting in a "super-hydrated" high-pressure phase I. As the flattening of the double crankshaft structural units in the GIS framework continues above 1.6 GPa, the ellipticity of the cross-linking 8-ring windows is reduced below a certain threshold, and a disordering of the potassium-water guest structure along the 8-ring channel, characteristic of a disordered high-pressure phase II, is observed. The concerted framework distortion and guest network disordering accommodates the increased hydration level while maintaining the seven-fold coordination environment of the potassium cations to framework oxygen atoms and water molecules. We have thus established the atomistic details of a guest-host order-disorder transition under pressure-induced hydration conditions in a zeolite with GIS framework and compared it to other zeolites during pressure-induced hydration. We find that the structural changes mediated by the extra-framework cations and their coordination environment under PIH conditions are at the core of these different mechanisms and are driving the changes in the ellipticity of pore openings, order-disorder and disorder-order transitions, and framework distortions.  相似文献

The high-pressure structure and dynamics of PbZr0.40Ti0.60O3 were investigated by means of neutron diffraction, X-ray diffraction, and resonance Raman spectroscopy. The complex (P4mm, Cm, Cc, F1, F1) phase transition sequence is characterized by these techniques. On the basis of the results of structure refinements, the high-pressure behavior of the spontaneous polarization, the (Zr,Ti)O6 rotation angles, and the polarization rotation angle are obtained. Moreover, resonance Raman spectra combined with previous Raman data in the literature provide evidence that the pressure-induced transition to the monoclinic Cm space group and the above transition sequence terminating in a paraelectric state are general features of Pb(Zr(1-x)Ti(x))O3 (0.48 < or = x < or = 1).  相似文献

In this work, the high-pressure behavior of Pmn2(1)-Li(2)MnSiO(4) and Pbn2(1)-Li(2)CoSiO(4) is followed by in situ X-ray diffraction at room temperature. Bulk moduli are 81 and 95 GPa for Pmn2(1)-Li(2)MnSiO(4) and Pbn2(1)-Li(2)CoSiO(4), respectively. Regardless of the moderate values of the bulk moduli, there is no evidence of any phase transformation up to a pressure of 15 GPa. Pmn2(1)-Li(2)MnSiO(4) shows an unusual expansion of the a lattice parameter upon compression. A density functional theory investigation yields lattice parameter variations and bulk moduli in good agreement with experiments. The calculated data indicate that expansion of the a lattice parameter is inherent to the crystal structure and independent of the nature of the transition-metal atom (M). The absence of pressure-driven phase transformation is likely associated with the incapability of the Li(2)MSiO(4) composition to adopt denser structures while avoiding large electrostatic repulsions.  相似文献

Angle-dispersive X-ray diffraction measurements have been performed in acanthite, Ag(2)S, up to 18 GPa in order to investigate its high-pressure structural behavior. They have been complemented by ab initio electronic structure calculations. From our experimental data, we have determined that two different high-pressure phase transitions take place at 5 and 10.5 GPa. The first pressure-induced transition is from the initial anti-PbCl(2)-like monoclinic structure (space group P2(1)/n) to an orthorhombic Ag(2)Se-type structure (space group P2(1)2(1)2(1)). The compressibility of the lattice parameters and the equation of state of both phases have been determined. A second phase transition to a P2(1)/n phase has been found, which is a slight modification of the low-pressure structure (Co(2)Si-related structure). The initial monoclinic phase was fully recovered after decompression. Density functional and, in particular, GGA+U calculations present an overall good agreement with the experimental results in terms of the high-pressure sequence, cell parameters, and their evolution with pressure.  相似文献

In-situ high-pressure synchrotron angle-dispersive X-ray diffraction for gibbsite (aluminum trihydroxide) was performed at room temperature up to 20 GPa. A pressure-induced phase transition was observed at 2.6 GPa. The new high-pressure phase can be recovered at ambient pressure. Rietveld refinement shows that the new phase of Al(OH)(3) has an orthorhombic structure, spacegroup Pbca, and the lattice parameters at ambient condition are a = 868.57(5) pm, b = 505.21(4) pm, c = 949.54(6) pm, V = 416.67(6) x 10(6) pm(3) with Z = 8. The compressibility of gibbsite and the high-pressure polymorph was analyzed, and their bulk moduli were estimated as 49.8 +/- 1.8 and 81.0 +/- 5.2 GPa, respectively. First-principles calculations of the high-pressure phase were performed to determine the hydrogen positions and to confirm the structural stability of the new phase.  相似文献

The high-pressure angle-dispersive X-ray diffraction experiments on the iron-based superconductor Nd(O0.88F0.12)FeAs were performed up to 32.7 GPa at room temperature. An isostructural phase transition starts at approximately 10 GPa. When pressure is higher than 13.5 GPa, Nd(O0.88F0.12)FeAs completely transforms to a high-pressure phase, which remains the same tetragonal structure with a larger a-axis and smaller c-axis than those of the low-pressure phase. The ambient conditions isothermal bulk moduli B0 are derived as 102(2) and 245(9) GPa for the low-pressure phase and high-pressure phase, respectively. The structure analysis based on the Rietveld refinement methods shows the difference of pressure dependence of the Fe-As and Nd-(O, F) bonding distances, as well as As-Fe-As and Nd-(O, F)-Nd angles between the low-pressure phase and high-pressure phase.  相似文献

The effect of pressure on the phase behavior of the liquid crystalline complex [Eu(bta)(3)L(2)] (bta is benzoyltrifluoroacetonate, and L is the Schiff base 2-hydroxy-N-octadecyl-4-tetradecyloxybenzaldimine) was studied by X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, and luminescence spectroscopy. The pressure was varied between ambient pressure and 8.0 GPa. [Eu(bta)(3)L(2)] exhibits a smectic A (SmA) phase at room temperature. The complex undergoes a transition from the SmA phase to a solid lamellar structure around 0.22 GPa and another transition from the solid lamellar phase to an amorphous state from 1.6 to 3.5 GPa. At low pressures, the smectic layer spacing increases, and the intermolecular distance decreases. Above 3.5 GPa, both the interlamellar and the intermolecular spacings hardly change, but the intensity of X-ray reflections exhibits a remarkable decrease and eventually vanishes. An interpretation of the changes in the molecular structure is given. It was found that less interdigitation of the alkyl chains situated in adjacent layers and/or a full extension of the alkyl chains occurred at low pressures and that the second phase transition was accompanied by a transfer of the hydrogen atom from the nitrogen atom of the imine group to the oxygen atom of the Schiff base ligand. The effect of applying pressure equals that of the lanthanide contraction on the phase behavior.  相似文献

The structure of BaThF(6) has been investigated as a function of temperature and pressure with single-crystal X-ray diffraction using synchrotron radiation. The compound crystallizes in the tysonite structure, space group P6(3)/mmc (a = 4.296(1) ? and c = 7.571(1) ? at ambient conditions). It is stable at least down to 150 K and up to 4 GPa. In the entire range of pressures and temperatures studied here, the compound is characterized by a high degree of disorder, both on the cationic and anionic positions. Despite the different valence states and sizes, both cations occupy the same crystallographic site in the ideal tysonite structure. The cationic disorder is described by two alternative approaches. The first model corresponds to a split-atom position model in which Ba(2+) is maintained on a special position with site symmetry 6m2, while Th(4+) is slightly displaced from the respective position. In the second model, both cations are maintained on the ideal position and anharmonic displacement parameters using a tensor of third order are introduced. Anharmonic displacement parameters have been refined from high-pressure single-crystal X-ray data measured in situ in a diamond anvil cell for the first time. The feasibility and general problems of anharmonic refinements of high-pressure X-ray data are further commented.  相似文献

Raman scattering and x-ray diffraction studies of CaSnO(3) perovskite were performed under high-pressure conditions. This high-pressure study was motivated by a recent theoretical study predicting a phase transition in CaSnO(3) from GdFeO(3)-type perovskite to CaIrO(3)-type structure occurred at 12 GPa. Despite no obvious structure change up to a pressure of 26 GPa based on the x-ray diffraction data, high pressure Raman measurements revealed that some Raman modes disappeared upon compression; either merging into neighboring bands or vanishing. The signals for these Raman peaks were recovered during decompression. The measured pressure derivative of Raman shift (?ν∕?P) of CaSnO(3) ranged from ~1.29 to ~4.35, up to 20 GPa. Due to the lack of lattice dynamic study for CaSnO(3) perovskite, the mode symmetry for CaSnO(3) was tentatively assigned based on the empirical relation among Ca-bearing perovskites. The pressure derivative of the Raman shifts was found to be related to their mode vibrations: modes related to Ca and O shifts had a strong pressure dependence compared with those associated with oxygen octahedral rotation.  相似文献

Ice VII was examined over the entire range of its pressure stability by a suite of x-ray diffraction techniques in order to understand a number of unexplained characteristics of its high-pressure behavior. Axial and radial polycrystalline (diamond anvil cell) x-ray diffraction measurements reveal a splitting of diffraction lines accompanied by changes in sample texture and elastic anisotropy. In situ laser heating of polycrystalline samples resulted in the sharpening of diffraction peaks due to release of nonhydrostatic stresses but did not remove the splitting. Radial diffraction measurements indicate changes in strength of the material at this pressure. Taken together, these observations provide evidence for a transition in ice VII near 14 GPa involving changes in the character of the proton order/disorder. The results are consistent with previous reports of changes in phase boundaries and equation of state at this pressure. The transition can be interpreted as ferroelastic with the appearance of spontaneous strain that vanishes at the hydrogen bond symmetrization transition near 60 GPa.  相似文献

We have investigated pressure-induced structural transitions in NaBH4 through density-functional theory calculations combined with X-ray and neutron diffraction experiments. Our calculations confirm that the cubic phase is stable up to 5.4 GPa and an orthorhombic phase occurs above 8.9 GPa, as observed in X-ray diffraction experiments. Both the calculations and X-ray diffraction measurements identify an intermediate tetragonal phase that appears between 6 and 8 GPa; that is, between the cubic and orthorhombic phases. This result is also confirmed by high-pressure neutron diffraction experiments performed on NaBD4. Our calculations and X-ray diffraction measurements show that the space group of the orthorhombic phase above 8.9 GPa is Pnma and the orthorhombic phase remains stable up to 30 GPa. The calculated equations of state are in excellent agreement with experiments.  相似文献

Single-crystal and polycrystalline urea samples were compressed to 12 GPa in a diamond-anvil cell. Raman-scattering measurements indicate a sequence of four structural phases occurring over this pressure range at room temperature. The transitions to the high-pressure phases take place at pressures near 0.5 GPa (phase I --> II), 5.0 GPa (II --> III), and 8.0 GPa (III --> IV). Lattice parameters in phase I (tetragonal, with 2 molecules per unit cell, space group P42(1)m (D3(2d))) and phase II (orthorhombic, 4 molecules per unit cell, space group P2(1)2(1)2(1) (D2(4))) were determined using angle-dispersive X-ray diffraction experiments. For phases III and IV, the combined Raman and diffraction data indicate that the unit cells are likely orthorhombic with four molecules per unit cell. Spatially resolved Raman measurements on single-crystal samples in phases III and IV reveal the coexistence of two domains with distinct spectral features. Physical origins of the spatial domains in phases III and IV are examined and discussed.  相似文献

Cubic Er(2)O(3) was compressed in a symmetric diamond anvil cell at room temperature and studied in situ using energy-dispersive X-ray diffraction. A transition to a monoclinic phase began at 9.9 GPa and was complete at 16.3 GPa and was accompanied by a approximately 9% volume decrease. The monoclinic phase was stable up to at least 30 GPa and could be quenched to ambient conditions. The normalized lattice parameter compression data for both phases were fit to linear equations, and the volume compression data were fit to third-order Birch-Murnaghan equations of state. The zero-pressure isothermal bulk moduli (B(0)) and the first-pressure derivatives (B(0)') for the cubic and monoclinic phases were 200(6) GPa and 8.4 and also 202(2) GPa and 1.0, respectively. Ab initio density functional theory calculations were performed to determine optimized lattice parameters and atom positions for the cubic, monoclinic, and hexagonal phases of Er(2)O(3). The calculated X-ray spectra and predicted transition pressure are in good qualitative agreement with the experimental results.  相似文献

We synthesized two high-pressure polymorphs PbNiO(3) with different structures, a perovskite-type and a LiNbO(3)-type structure, and investigated their formation behavior, detailed structure, structural transformation, thermal stability, valence state of cations, and magnetic and electronic properties. A perovskite-type PbNiO(3) synthesized at 800 °C under a pressure of 3 GPa crystallizes as an orthorhombic GdFeO(3)-type structure with a space group Pnma. The reaction under high pressure was monitored by an in situ energy dispersive X-ray diffraction experiment, which revealed that a perovskit-type phase was formed even at 400 °C under 3 GPa. The obtained perovskite-type phase irreversibly transforms to a LiNbO(3)-type phase with an acentric space group R3c by heat treatment at ambient pressure. The Rietveld structural refinement using synchrotron X-ray diffraction data and the XPS measurement for both the perovskite- and the LiNbO(3)-type phases reveal that both phases possess the valence state of Pb(4+)Ni(2+)O(3). Perovskite-type PbNiO(3) is the first example of the Pb(4+)M(2+)O(3) series, and the first example of the perovskite containing a tetravalent A-site cation without lone pair electrons. The magnetic susceptibility measurement shows that the perovskite- and LiNbO(3)-type PbNiO(3) undergo antiferromagnetic transition at 225 and 205 K, respectively. Both the perovskite- and LiNbO(3)-type phases exhibit semiconducting behavior.  相似文献

The phase diagram and polymorphism of oxygen at high pressures and temperatures are of great interest to condensed matter and earth science. X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy of oxygen using laser and resistively heated diamond anvil cells reveal that the molecular high-pressure phase ε-O(2), which consists of (O(2))(4) clusters, reversibly transforms in the pressure range of 44 to 90 GPa and temperatures near 1000 K to a new phase with higher symmetry. The data suggest that this new phase (η') is isostructural to a phase η reported previously at lower pressures and temperatures, but differs from it in the P-T range of stability and type of intermolecular association. The melting curve increases monotonically up to the maximum pressures studied (~60 GPa). The structure factor of the fluid measured as a function of pressure to 58 GPa shows continuous changes toward molecular dissociation.  相似文献

Raman spectroscopy and synchrotron X-ray diffraction are used to examine the high-pressure behavior of tetramethylammonium borohydride (TMAB) to 40 GPa at room temperature. The measurements reveal weak pressure-induced structural transitions around 5 and 20 GPa. Rietveld analysis and Le Bail fits of the powder diffraction data based on known structures of tetramethylammonium salts indicate that the transitions are mediated by orientational ordering of the BH(4)(-) tetrahedra followed by tilting of the (CH(3))(4)N(+) groups. X-ray diffraction patterns obtained during pressure release suggest reversibility with a degree of hysteresis. Changes in the Raman spectrum confirm that these transitions are not accompanied by bonding changes between the two ionic species. At ambient conditions, TMAB does not possess dihydrogen bonding, and Raman data confirms that this feature is not activated upon compression. The pressure-volume equation of state obtained from the diffraction data gives a bulk modulus [K(0) = 5.9(6) GPa, K(0)' = 9.6(4)] slightly lower than that observed for ammonia borane. Raman spectra obtained over the entire pressure range (spanning over 40% densification) indicate that the intramolecular vibrational modes are largely coupled.  相似文献
