We report an organic–ionic material that undergoes a first-order structural phase transition, induced by order–disorder of oxygen atoms in picrate anion. This strategy offers a potential pathway to explore new switchable dielectric materials.

The high-pressure induced phase transition of YSb has been studied using the density functional theory method within the generalized gradient approximation. It was found that the first-order structural phase transition began to occur at 30.8 GPa, agreeing well with available experiments and theoretical calculations. In this phase transition, we do not find changes in the heat capacity and thermal expansion coefficients at lower and higher temperature, but the transition pressures decrease with temperature. The bulk modulus and Debye temperature decrease with increasing temperature, while they increase with increasing pressure. Also, the density of states and band structure of these two compounds with B1 and B2 structures have been presented and analyzed.
