The synthesis of IrI$_3$ at high pressure in its layered honeycomb polymorph is reported. Its crystal structure is refined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Faults in the honeycomb layer stacking are observed by single crystal…

A previously unreported layered spin 1/2 triangular lattice polymorph of TiI3 is described, synthesized under 6 GPa of applied pressure at 900 C, but stable at atmospheric pressure. This air-sensitive material has a CdI2-type layered…

The layered RuBr3-RuI3 honeycomb system was synthesized at high-pressures. The crystal structures are centrosymmetric (space group R-3), and based on honeycomb layers of Ru$^{3+}$ (S=1/2). Their basic physical properties are surveyed. The…

We applied synchrotron single-crystal X-ray diffraction in a diamond anvil cell at 48-51 GPa and first-principles theoretical calculations to study the crystal structure of solid atomic iodine at high pressure. We report the synthesis of…

Polytypism of incommensurately modulated structures was hitherto unobserved. Here, we found the phenomenon in simple halogen systems of bromine and iodine upon molecular dissociation in the solids under pressure. Single-crystal synchrotron…

We use powder x-ray diffraction to study the effect of pressure on the crystal structure of the honeycomb rhodate Li$_2$RhO$_3$. We observe low-pressure ($P$$<$$P_{c1}$ = 6.5 GPa) and high-pressure ($P$$>$$P_{c2}$ = 14 GPa) regions…

A class of iridium hydrides, IrH_x (x=0.5, 1-4, 6), is calculated at ab-initio level using the DFT. A number of hydrides are predicted to stabilize in the excess hydrogen environment and upon compression. The threshold pressure for…

The structures of compressed rubidium polyhydrides, RbHn with n>1, and their evolution under pressure are studied using density functional theory calculations. These phases, which start to stabilize at only P=2 GPa, consist of Rb+ cations…

In this letter, we describe the stabilization of indium antimonide (InSb) in the high-pressure orthorhombic phase (InSb-III) at ambient conditions. Until now, InSb-III has only been observed above 9 GPa, or at around 3 GPa as a metastable…

Single- and few-layer chromium triiodide (CrI3), which has been intensively investigated as a promising platform for two-dimensional magnetism, was usually prepared by mechanical exfoliation. Here, we report on the growth of single-layer…

Pressure-induced phase transitions of multiferroic BiFeO3 have been investigated using synchrotron radiation X-ray diffraction with diamond anvil cell technique at room temperature. Present experimental data clearly show that rhombohedral…

Contradictory results of high-pressure studies in cubic bixbyite-type indium oxide (c-In2O3) at room temperature (RT) have motivated us to perform high-pressure powder x-ray diffraction and Raman scattering measurements in this material. On…

Results of in situ high pressure x-ray powder diffraction on the mixed valence compound Cs2Au(I)Au(III)I6 (CsAuI3) are reported, for pressures up to 21 GPa in a diamond anvil cell under hydrostatic conditions. We find a reversible…

Structural changes in REMnO3 (RE= Y, Ho, Lu) under high pressure were examined by synchrotron x-ray diffraction methods at room temperature. Compression occurs more readily in the ab plane than along the c-axis. Under hydrostatic pressure…

The structural properties of Thallium (III) oxide (Tl2O3) have been studied both experimentally and theoretically under compression at room temperature. X-ray powder diffraction measurements up to 37.7 GPa have been complemented with ab…

The layered honeycomb lattice iridate Cu$_2$IrO$_3$ is the closest realization of the Kitaev quantum spin liquid, primarily due to the enhanced interlayer separation and nearly ideal honeycomb lattice. We report pressure-induced structural…

Tellurium trioxide, TeO3, is the only example of a trioxide adopting at ambient conditions the VF3-type structure (a distorted variant of the cubic ReO3 structure). Here we present a combined experimental (Raman scattering) and theoretical…

The crystal structure of CH3NH3PbBr3 perovskite has been investigated under high-pressure by synchrotron-based powder X-ray diffraction. We found that after the previously reported phase transitions in CH3NH3PbBr3 (Pm-3m->Im-3->Pmn21),…

We report the discovery of an intriguing pressure-driven phase transformation in the layered Kitaev-material $\alpha$-RuCl$_3$. By analyzing both the Bragg scattering as well as the diffuse scattering of high-quality single crystals, we…

La$_3$Ni$_2$O$_7$ exists in two polymorphs: an unconventional structure with alternating layers of single- and triple-layered nickel-oxygen octahedra, and a classical double-layered Ruddlesden-Popper phase. In this study, we report the…
