We present a technique for extracting Raman intensities from ab initio molecular dynamics (MD) simulations at high temperature. The method is applied to the highly anharmonic case of dense hydrogen up to 500 K for pressures ranging from 180…
Two new phases of hydrogen have been discovered at room temperature in Ref.1: phase IV above 220 GPa and phase V above ~270 GPa. In the present work we have found a new phase VI at P~360 GPa and T<200 K. This phase is likely metallic as…
Hydrocarbons are of great importance in carbon-bearing fluids in deep Earth and in ice giant planets at extreme pressure (P)-temperature (T) conditions. Raman spectroscopy is a powerful tool to study the chemical speciation of hydrocarbons;…
We present and evaluate an efficient method for simulating Raman spectra from molecular dynamics (MD) calculations {\it without} defining normal modes. We apply the method to high pressure hydrogen in the high-temperature "Phase IV": a…
In previous work,1 we showed that hydrogen metallizes in phase III at temperatures below ~200 K and at pressures near ~350 GPa. Here, we perform a detailed study of electrical conductivity R(T) in phase III over a pressure range of 200-400…
We report Raman scattering and visible to near-infrared absorption spectra of solid hydrogen under static pressure up to 285 GPa at 85-140 K. We obtain pressure dependences of vibron and phonon modes in agreement with previously determined…
In the quest to make metallic hydrogen at low temperatures a rich number of new phases have been found and the highest pressure ones have somewhat flat phase lines, around room temperature. We have studied hydrogen to static pressures of…
We extend our previous studies on phase IV of solid hydrogen by employing larger cells and k-sampling. We show that uncorrelated hexagonal rotations in the weakly bounded G"-layers are needed to account for the experimentally measured Raman…
We review recent development in Raman techniques and diamond anvil cell technology, that allow measurements of Raman of metals in the megabar pressure range. The Raman technique includes holographic transmission optics and single-stage…
We investigate the optical properties of hydrogen as it undergoes a transition from the insulating molecular to the metallic atomic phase, when heated by a pulsed laser at megabar pressures in a diamond anvil cell. Most current experiments…
The recent progress in generating static pressures up to terapascal values opens opportunities for studying novel materials with unusual properties, such as metallization of hydrogen and high-temperature superconductivity. However, an…
According to the theoretical predictions, insulating molecular hydrogen dissociates and transforms to an atomic metal at pressures P~370-500 GPa. In another scenario, the metallization first occurs in the 250-500 GPa pressure range in…
By employing first-principles metadynamics simulations, we explore the 300 K structures of solid hydrogen over the pressure range 150-300 GPa. At 200 GPa, we find the ambient-pressure disordered hexagonal close-packed (hcp) phase transited…
Hydrogen at high temperature and pressure undergoes a phase transition from a liquid molecular phase to a conductive atomic state, or liquid metallic hydrogen, sometimes referred to as the plasma phase transition (PPT). The PPT phase line…
The high pressure(P)-high temperature(T) phase diagram of solid ammonia has been investigated using diamond anvil cell and resistive heating techniques. The III-IV transition line has been determined up to 20 GPa and 500 K both on…
Raman scattering experiments have been carried out on single crystals of Nd$_{0.5}$Sr$_{0.5}$MnO$_3$ as a function of temperature in the range of 320-50 K, covering the paramagnetic insulator-ferromagnetc metal transition at 250 K and the…
We present infrared absorption studies of solid hydrogen deuteride to pressures as high as 3.4 megabar in a diamond anvil cell and temperatures in the range 5 to 295 K. Above 198 GPa the sample transforms to a mixture of HD ,H2 and D2,…
Hydrogen has been the essential element in the development of atomic and molecular physics1). Moving to the properties of dense hydrogen has appeared a good deal more complex than originally thought by Wigner and Hungtinton in their seminal…
Two-dimensional layered trichalcogenide materials have recently attracted the attention of the scientific community because of its robust mechanical, thermal properties and applications in opto and nanoelectronics devices. We report the…
The hydrogen phase diagram has a number of unusual features which are generally well reproduced by density functional calculations. Unfortunately, these calculations fail to provide good physical insights into why those features occur. In…
