| Abstract: | Summary Structural phase transitions upon the application of high pressure in LaGaO3 and LaCrO3, which were prospected from diffraction and thermal analyses of phase transition under ambient pressure, were discovered by using high-pressure X-ray diffraction. It was revealed that the crystal structures of LaCrO3 and LaGaO3 changed completely from that of orthorhombic distorted perovskite to that of a rhombohedral distorted one upon the application of pressure higher than 5.4 and 3.0 GPa, respectively, at room temperature. The variation of lattice constants with pressure was investigated for the high-pressure rhombohedral phases of LaCrO3 and LaGaO3 and isothermal compressibility was estimated. The variation of lattice constants with pressure at room temperature in the high-pressure rhombohedral phase was compared with that with temperature at ambient pressure in high-temperature rhombohedral phase. It was found that the application of pressure decreased the crystal symmetry, which was opposite to the result in the case of increasing the temperature. |
