We studied the crystal structure of TiOCl up to pressures of $p$=25~GPa at room temperature by x-ray powder diffraction measurements. Two pressure-induced structural phase transitions are observed: At $p_{c1}$$\approx$15~GPa emerges an…
Forming macroscopic solid bodies in circumstellar discs requires local dust concentration levels significantly higher than the mean. Interactions of the dust particles with the gas must serve to augment local particle densities, and…
Recently a new approach to the determination of dynamic correlation lengths, {\xi}, for supercooled liquids, based on the properties of the slow (picosecond) vibrational dynamics, was carried out [L. Hong, V.N. Novikov, and A.P. Sokolov,…
We report an ab-initio simulation of liquid Indium in a wide range of pressures and temperatures. We calculate equation of state, thermal expansion and compressibility coefficients. The structure of the system is analyzed by radial…
\textit{In situ} high-pressure Brillouin light scattering experiments along loading-unloading paths are used to investigate the compressibility of vitreous silica. An accurate equation of state is obtained below \SI{9}{GPa} using sound…
Transport and magnetic studies of PbTaSe$_2$ under pressure suggest existence of two superconducting phases with the low temperature phase boundary at $\sim 0.25$ GPa that is defined by a very sharp, first order, phase transition. The first…
Based on a previously proposed thermodynamic analysis, we study the relative stabilities of five Si phases under uniaxial compression using ab initio methods. The five phases are diamond, beta-tin, sh, sc, and hcp structures. The possible…
The melting curve of pure silica (SiO$_2$) was determined using {\it ab initio} density functional theory together with the solid-liquid coexisting approach, thermodynamic integration and the Z method. The melting curves are consistent with…
One approach to discovering topological superconductor is establishing superconductivity based on well-identified topological insulators. However, the coexistence of superconductivity and topological state is always arcane. In this paper,…
X-ray diffraction (XRD) experiments have been carried out on quartz-like GaPO4 at high pressure and room temperature. A transition to a high pressure disordered crystalline form occurs at 13.5 GPa. Slight heating using a YAG infrared laser…
High pressure electrical resistance and x-ray diffraction measurements have been performed on ruthenium-doped Ba(Fe0.9Ru0.1)2As2, up to pressures of 32 GPa and down to temperatures of 10 K, using designer diamond anvils under…
Silicon carbide is a hard, semiconducting material presenting many polytypes, whose behavior under extreme conditions of pressure and temperature has attracted large interest. Here we study the mechanical properties of 3C-SiC over a wide…
Powder X-ray diffraction experiments under pressure up to $\sim$10 GPa were performed on tetragonal CeFeSi-type $R$MnSi ($R$ = La, Ce, Pr, Nd). A structural phase transition was observed in CeMnSi at a critical pressure of $P_{\rm s}$…
Zircon-type HoPO4 and TmPO4 have been studied by single-crystal x-ray diffraction and ab initio calculations. We report information on the influence of pressure on the crystal structure, and on the elastic and thermodynamic properties. The…
The thermodynamic stable phase of cerium metal in the intermediate pressure regime (5.0--13.0 GPa) is studied in detail by the newly developed local-density approximation (LDA)+ Gutzwiller method, which can include the strong correlation…
Pressure induced structural modifications in vitreous Ge$_{x}$Se$_{100-x}$ (where 10 $\leq$ x $\leq$ 25)are investigated using X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) along with supplementary X-ray diffraction (XRD) experiments and ab initio…
We present a study of electrical transport properties of $R$Bi$_2$ ($R$ = La, Ce) under hydrostatic pressure up to $\sim$ 2.5 GPa. These measurements are complemented by thermodynamic measurements of the specific heat on CeBi$_2$ at…
The application of high pressure can fundamentally modify the crystalline and electronic structures of elements as well as their chemical reactivity, which could lead to the formation of novel materials. Here, we explore the reactivity of…
The local structure of high pressure BaTiO$_3$ has been interrogated by neutron total scattering methods, up to pressures of 4.18 GPa at ambient temperature. Competitive refinements of cubic, tetragonal and rhombohedral distortion modes…
