In-situ high-pressure energy dispersive X-ray diffraction measurements on CuBa 2- Ca 3 Cu 4 O 10 + δ (Cu-1234) have been performed by using diamond anvil cell (DAC) device with synchrotron radiation. The results suggest that the crystal structure of Cu-1234 superconductor is stable under pressures up to 34 GPa at room temperature. According to the Birch–Murnaghan equation of state, the bulk modulus is obtained to be ~ 150 GPa.

In situ high pressure energy dispersive X-ray diffraction measurements on layered perovskite-like manganate Ca 3 Mn 2 O 7 under pressures up to 35 GPa have been performed by using diamond anvil cell with synchrotron radiation. The results show that the structure of layered perovskite-like manganate Ca 3 Mn 2 O 7 is unstable under pressure due to the easy compression of NaCl-type blocks. The structure of Ca 3 Mn 2 O 7 underwent two phase transitions under pressures in the range of 0~35 GPa. One was at about 1.3 GPa with the crystal structure changing from tetragonal to orthorhombic. The other was at about 9.5 GPa with the crystal structure changing from orthorhombic back to another tetragonal.

Murnaghan Equation

High-pressure synchrotron X-ray diffraction was carried out on a single crystal of mascagnite, compressed in a diamond anvil cell. The sample maintained its crystal structure up to ~18 GPa. The volume–pressure data were fitted by a third-order Birch–Murnaghan equation of state (BM3-EOS) yielding K0 = 20.4(7) GPa, K’0 = 6.1(2), and V0 = 499(1) Å3, as suggested by the F-f plot. The axial compressibilities, calculated with BM3-EOS, were K0a = 35(3), K’0a = 7.7(7), K0b = 10(3), K’0b = 7(1), K0c = 25(1), and K’0c = 4.3(2) The axial moduli measured using a BM2-EOS and fixing K’0 equal to 4, were K0a = 52(2), K0b = 20 (1), and K0c = 29.6(4) GPa, and the anisotropic ratio of K0a:K0b:K0c = 1:0.4:0.5. The evolution of crystal lattice and geometrical parameters indicated no phase transition until 17.6 GPa. Sulphate polyhedra were incompressible and the density increase of 30% compared to investigated pressure should be attributed to the reduction of weaker hydrogen bonds. In contrast, some of them, directed along [100], were very short at room temperature, below 2 Å, and showed a very low compressibility. This configuration explains the anisotropic compressional behavior and the lowest compressibility of the a axis.

A structure and equation of the state of δ-AlOOH has been studied at room temperature, up to 29.35 GPa, by means of single crystal X-ray diffraction in a diamond anvil cell using synchrotron radiation. Above ~10 GPa, we observed a phase transition with symmetry changes from P21nm to Pnnm. Pressure-volume data were fitted with the second order Birch-Murnaghan equation of state and showed that, at the phase transition, the bulk modulus (K0) of the calculated wrt 0 pressure increases from 142(5) to 216(5) GPa.

The equation of state (EOS) of mixture of Li[Formula: see text]Mn[Formula: see text]Co[Formula: see text]Ni[Formula: see text]O2 and LiNi[Formula: see text] Co[Formula: see text]Mn[Formula: see text]Al[Formula: see text]O2 was studied by synchrotron radiation X-ray diffraction (XRD) at room-temperature in a diamond anvil cell (DAC). The results showed that the hexagonal structure is maintained to the highest pressure of 23.1 GPa. The bulk modulus and its first derivative obtained from XRD data are [Formula: see text] GPa and [Formula: see text], respectively. In addition, we have investigated the high-pressure electrical conductivity of the mixture of Li[Formula: see text]Mn[Formula: see text]Co[Formula: see text]Ni[Formula: see text]O2 and LiNi[Formula: see text]Co[Formula: see text]Mn[Formula: see text]Al[Formula: see text]O2 to 22.9 GPa in a DAC. It is found that the resistance decreases with the increase of pressure and changes exponentially.

An incident beam X-ray collimator for Mao-Bell type diamond anvil cell (DAC) has been developed. Alignment of the collimator is carried out in situ while viewing the image of the collimated X-ray spot formed on a thin layer of fluorescent material spread on the diamond anvil culets with the help of a microscope. Special precaution has been taken to meet the radiation safety requirements during alignment and routine use. This collimator is of immense help for laboratory based high pressure X-ray diffraction experiments.

The structural behavior of the antifluorite Na2S, disodium sulfide, has been studied under pressure up to 22 GPa by in situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction experiments in a diamond anvil cell at room temperature. At approximately 7 GPa, Na2S undergoes a first phase transition to the orthorhombic anticotunnite (PbCl2) structure (Pnma, Z = 4). The lattice parameters at 8.2 GPa are a = 6.707 (5), b = 4.120 (3), c = 8.025 (4) Å. At approximately 16 GPa, Na2S undergoes a second transition adopting the structure of the Ni2In-type (P63/mmc, Z = 2). The lattice parameters at 16.6 GPa are a = 4.376 (18), c = 5.856 (9) Å. Both pressure-induced phases have been confirmed by full Rietveld refinements. An inspection of the cation array of Na2SO4 reveals that its Na2S subarray is also of the Ni2In-type. This feature represents a new example of how the cation arrangements in ternary oxides correspond to the topology of the respective binary compounds. We discuss analogies between the insertion of oxygen and the application of pressure.

Isomers 1,2-dichlorobenzene (o-DCB) and 1,3-dichlorobenzene (m-DCB) were high-pressure frozen in-situ in a Merrill–Bassett diamond–anvil cell and their structures determined at room temperature and at 0.18 (5) GPa for o-DCB, and 0.17 (5) GPa for m-DCB by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The patterns of halogen...halogen intermolecular interactions in these structures can be considered to be the main cohesive forces responsible for the molecular arrangements in these crystals. The molecular packing of dichlorobenzene isomers, including three polymorphs of 1,4-dichlorobenzene (p-DCB), have been compared and relations between their molecular symmetry, packing arrangements, intermolecular interactions and melting points discussed. The topology of the crystal packing in dichlorobenzene isomers results from the interplay of the molecular shape, steric hindrances and intermolecular interactions. The non-planar arrangement of the dichlorobenzene molecules in the crystal structures can be justified by the distributions of the electrostatic potential on molecular surfaces, which determines electrostatic intermolecular interactions.

In situ high-pressure synchrotron X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopic experiments of scottyite, BaCu2Si2O7, were carried out in a diamond anvil cell up to 21 GPa at room temperature. X-ray diffraction patterns reveal four new peaks near 3.5, 3.1, 2.6 and 2.2 Å above 8 GPa, while some peaks of the original phase disappear above 10 GPa. In the Raman experiment, we observed two discontinuities in dν/dP, the slopes of Raman wavenumber (ν) of some vibration modes versus pressure (P), at approximately 8 and 12 GPa, indicating that the Si-O symmetrical and asymmetrical vibration modes change with pressure. Fitting the compression data to Birch–Murnaghan equation yields a bulk modulus of 102 ± 5 GPa for scottyite, assuming Ko′ is four. Scottyite shows anisotropic compressibility along three crystallographic axes, among which c-axis was the most compressible axis, b-axis was the last and a-axis was similar to the c-axis on the compression. Both X-ray and Raman spectroscopic data provide evidences that scottyite undergoes a reversible phase transformation at 8 GPa.
