The phase relations in boron have been investigated at high pressure and high temperature using a multianvil apparatus, and the quenched sample has been analyzed by x-ray diffraction, Raman spectra and transmission electron microscopy. We…

Boron bulk crystals are marked by exceptional structural complexity and unusual related physical phenomena. Recent reports of hydrogenated $\alpha$-tetragonal and a new $\delta$-orthorhombic boron B$_{52}$ phase have raised many fundamental…

During past years, a number of reports have been published on synthesis of tetragonal allotrope of boron, t-B52 phase. However, no unambiguous characterization of the crystal structure has been performed to the present time, while…

{\gamma}-B28 is a recently established high-pressure phase of boron. Its structure consists of icosahedral B12 clusters and B2 dumbbells in a NaCl-type arrangement (B2){\delta}+(B12){\delta}- and displays a significant charge transfer…

Measurements of the hardness of a new high-pressure boron phase, orthorhombic {\gamma}-B28, are reported. According to the data obtained, {\gamma}-B28 has the highest hardness (~50 GPa) of all known crystalline modifications of boron.

Boron is an element of fascinating chemical complexity. Controversies have shrouded this element since its discovery was announced in 1808: the new 'element' turned out to be a compound containing less than 60-70 percent of boron, and it…

In the search for MgB2-like phonon-mediated superconductors we have carried out a systematic density functional theory study of the Ca-B system, isoelectronic to Mg-B, at ambient and gigapascal pressures. A remarkable variety of candidate…

Phase relations in the B-BN system have been studied ex situ and in situ at pressures 2-20 GPa and temperatures up to 2800 K. The evolution of topology of the B-BN phase diagram has been investigated up to 24 GPa using models of…

New boron subnitride B50N2 has been synthesized by crystallization from the B-BN melt at 5 GPa, and its structure has been refined using Rietveld analysis. B50N2 crystallizes in the tetragonal space group P-4n2 with unit cell parameters a =…

By employing $ab$ $initio$ molecular dynamics simulations at constant pressure, we investigated behavior of amorphous carbon dioxide between 0-100 GPa and 200-500 K and found several new amorphous forms. We focused on evolution of the…

We report the results of the X-ray diffraction study of B2O3 glass in the pressure interval up to 10 GPa in the 300-700 K temperature range, the results of in-situ volumetric measurements of the glass at pressures up to 9 GPa at room…

The influence of the nature of the boron precursor on the superconducting properties of polycrystalline MgB2 was studied. Critical current densities for the MgB2 made from high purity amorphous boron are at least a factor of three higher…

Boron nitride (BN) is an exceptional material and among its polymorphs, two-dimensional (2D) hexagonal and three-dimensional (3D) cubic BN (h-BN and c-BN) phases are most common. The phase stability regimes of these BN phases are still…

Recently, Pei et al. (arXiv2105.13250) reported that ambient pressure ${\beta}$-MoB$_2$ exhibits a phase transition to ${\alpha}$-MoB$_2$ (space group: $P6/mmm$) at pressure P~70 GPa and this high-pressure phase is a high-temperature…

In this paper, we revisit the high-pressure behavior of BaZrO3 by a combination of first-principle calculations, Raman spectroscopy, and x-ray diffraction under high pressure. We confirm experimentally the cubic-to-tetragonal transition at…

Through the use of perturbation theory, in this work we develop a method which allows for a substantial reduction in the size of the plane-wave basis used in density-functional calculations. This method may be used for both pseudopotentials…

Boron carbide is a ceramic material with unique properties widely used in numerous, including armor, applications. Its mechanical properties, mechanism of compression, and limits of stability are of both scientific and practical value.…

In this work we describe the thermodynamics and mechanism of CO$_2$ polymorphic transitions under pressure from form I to form III combining standard molecular dynamics, well-tempered metadynamics and committor analysis. We find that the…

Boron suboxide B6O, the hardest known oxide, has an R-3m crystal structure ({\alpha}-B6O) that can be described as an oxygen-intercalated structure of {\alpha}-boron, or, equivalently, as a cubic close packing of B12 icosahedra with two…

High-pressure phase of boron oxide, orthorhombic \b{eta}-B2O3, has been studied in situ by synchrotron X-ray diffraction to 22 GPa and Raman scattering to 46 GPa at room temperature. The bulk modulus of \b{eta}-B2O3 has been found to be…
