Pressure-induced Td to 1T' structural phase transition in WTe₂

Journal Article Zhou, Yonghui ; Chen, Xuliang ; Li, Nana ; ... - AIP Advances

WTe₂ is provoking immense interest owing to its extraordinary properties, such as large positive magnetoresistance, pressure-driven superconductivity and possible type-II Weyl semimetal state. Here we report results of high-pressure synchrotron X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman and electrical transport measurements on WTe₂. Both the XRD and Raman results reveal a structural transition upon compression, starting at 6.0 GPa and completing above 15.5 GPa. We have determined that the high-pressure lattice symmetry is monoclinic 1T' with space group of P2₁/m. This transition is related to a lateral sliding of adjacent Te-W-Te layers and results in a collapse of the unit cell volume bymore »« less

Pressure induced structural transitions in CuSbS₂ and CuSbSe₂ thermoelectric compounds

Journal Article Baker, Jason ; Kumar, Ravhi S. ; Sneed, Daniel ; ... - Journal of Alloys and Compounds

We have investigated the structural behavior of CuSbS₂ and CuSbSe₂ thermoelectric materials under high pressure conditions up to 80 GPa using angle dispersive x-ray diffraction in a diamond anvil cell (DAC). We have also performed high-pressure Raman spectroscopy measurements up to 15 GPa. We observed a pressure-induced structural transformation from the ambient orthorhombic structure with space group Pnma to a triclinic type structure with space group P1 beginning around 8 GPa in both samples and completing at 13 GPa and 10 GPa in CuSbS₂ and CuSbSe₂, respectively. High pressure Raman experiments complement the transitions observed by high-pressure x-ray diffraction (HPXRD).more »« less

Pressure-induced structural transition in chalcopyrite ZnSiP₂

Journal Article Bhadram, Venkata S. ; Krishna, Lakshmi ; Toberer, Eric S. ; ... - Applied Physics Letters

In this paper, the pressure-dependent phase behavior of semiconducting chalcopyrite ZnSiP₂ was studied up to 30 GPa using in situ X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy in a diamond-anvil cell. A structural phase transition to the rock salt type structure was observed between 27 and 30 GPa, which is accompanied by soft phonon mode behavior and simultaneous loss of Raman signal and optical transmission through the sample. The high-pressure rock salt type phase possesses cationic disorder as evident from broad features in the X-ray diffraction patterns. The behavior of the low-frequency Raman modes during compression establishes a two-stage, order-disorder phase transitionmore »« less
