Understanding the properties of molecular solids at high pressure is a key element in the development of new solid-state theories. However, the most commonly used generalized-gradient approximation (GGA) of the density functional theory…
The vibrational and structural properties of a hydrogen-rich Group IVa hydride, Ge(CH$_3$)$_4$, are studied by combining Raman spectroscopy and synchrotron X-ray diffraction measurements at room temperature and at pressures up to 30.2 GPa.…
The lattice parameters, lattice stability and phonon dispersion curves of five proposed phases of Ti: alpha, beta, gamma, delta and omega are investigated within DFT. It is found that the sequence of high pressure phases at zero temperature…
Tellurium (Te) is one of the p-orbital chalcogens, which shows attractive physical properties at ambient pressure. Here, we systematically investigate both structural and electronic evolution of Te single crystal under high pressure up to…
