Abstract: | Thulium monotelluride undergoes a structural transformation at 15 GPa from NaCl-type structure to a hexagonal structure with unit cell dimensions: a = 4.07 A and c = 6.84 A. The high pressure diffraction pattern is explained reasonably well by anti-NiAs-type structure. The volume change associated with the transformation is 3.8 per cent. |
