We review recent advances in diamond anvil cell development, focusing on the details of magnetic susceptibility techniques. We have developed and implemented highly sensitive technique that allowed observations of superconductivity using…
The study of materials behavior under extreme conditions is fundamental to science and modern technology. Fast ramp compression is a unique method for exploring materials behavior and phase transformations under extreme conditions. One…
Reversible hydrogen uptake and the metal/dielectric transition make the Mg/MgH$_2$ system a prime candidate for solid state hydrogen storage and dynamic plasmonics. However, high dehydrogenation temperatures and slow dehydrogenation hamper…
An original mechanism is proposed for a pressure-induced transformation of orthorhombic C12 from ground state normal pressure (NP) sp2/sp3 allotrope to ultra-dense and ultra-hard HP sp3 form. Upon volume decrease, the trigonal C=C parallel…
Superatomic crystal is a class of hierarchical materials composed of atomically precise clusters assembled via van der Waals or covalent-like interactions. AuTe$_2$Se$_{4/3}$, an all-inorganic superatomic superconductor exhibiting…
The electrical resistivity rho of the iron-arsenide superconductor Ba1-xKxFe2As2 was measured in applied pressures up to 2.6 GPa for four underdoped samples, with x = 0.16, 0.18, 0.19 and 0.21. The antiferromagnetic ordering temperature…
When subjected to large amplitude oscillatory shear stress, aqueous Laponite suspensions show an abrupt solidification transition after a long delay time tc. We measure the dependence of tc on stress amplitude, frequency, and on the…
Magnetization and high-resolution x-ray diffraction measurements of the Kitaev-Heisenberg material alpha-RuCl3 reveal a pressure-induced crystallographic and magnetic phase transition at a hydrostatic pressure of p=0.2 GPa. This structural…
Heavy plastic shear deformation at relatively low homologous temperatures is called high-pressure torsion (HPT) deformation, which is one method of severe plastic deformation (SPD). The aim of the paper is to give an overview of a new…
As a potential building block for the next generation of devices or multifunctional materials that are spreading almost every technology sector, one-dimensional (1D) carbon nanomaterial has received intensive research interests. Recently, a…
Mechanical deformation of nanopillars displays features that are distinctly different from the bulk behavior of single crystals: Yield strength increases with decreasing size and plastic deformation comes together with strain bursts or/and…
We investigate the effect of annealed disorder on the mechanical properties and plasticity of a modeled amorphous solid by introducing a small fraction of heavy impurities into the material which resembles real experimental systems. The…
A hydrostatic pressure study was made on pure and Rh-doped specimens of the superconducting ferromagnetic compounds Ru1-xRhxSr2GdCu2O8 (x = 0-0.15) by means of measurement of electrical resistivity vs temperature, in pressures up to 2 GPa.…
Charge density waves (CDW) and their concomitant periodic lattice distortions (PLD) govern the electronic properties in many layered transition-metal dichalcogenides. In particular, 1T-TaS2 undergoes a metal-to-insulator phase transition as…
This work presents how first-principles simulations validated through experimental measurements lead to a new accurate prediction of the expected Raman shift as a function of strain in silicon. Structural relaxation of a strained primitive…
Semiconductor superlattices have found widespread applications in electronic industries. In this work, short-period superlattice structure (SLs) composed of CdO and MgO layers was grown using the plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy…
The prototypical $\alpha\to\omega$ phase transition in zirconium is an ideal test-bed for our understanding of polymorphism under extreme loading conditions. After half a century of study, a consensus had emerged that the transition is…
I discuss the behaviour of Group 1 and 2 elements under pressure, describing crystallography based on diamond anvil pressure cell experiments and electronic structure calculations. In addition to these precise methods, we discuss more…
Nanopowder consolidation under high strain rate shock compression is a potential method for synthesizing and processing bulk nanomaterials. A thorough investigation of the shock deformation of powder materials is of great engineering…
