Nonadiabaticity under compression in metastable carbon monoxide-nitroxide mixtures
Reetam Paul, Jonathan C. Crowhurst, Stanimir Bonev
Carbon monoxide (CO) and nitrous oxide (N2O) both undergo profound structural and chemical transformations when compressed. While their individual high-P/T phase diagrams have been…
Photo-induced electronic excitations drive polymerization of carbon monoxide: A first-principles study
Rasool Ahmad, Jonathan C. Crowhurst, Stanimir A. Bonev
Under pressure, carbon monoxide (CO) transforms into a polymer that can be recovered to ambient conditions. While this transformation can occur without additional stimuli, experime…
Prediction of an alternative route to polymeric carbon dioxide: A metastable energetic material
Reetam Paul, Jonathan C. Crowhurst, Stanimir A. Bonev
The use of pressure to obtain new materials that can be recovered under ambient conditions is a central problem in high-pressure physics. Despite decades of research, this goal has…
Isolating Chemical Reaction Mechanism as a Variable with Reactive Coarse-Grained Molecular Dynamics: Step-Growth versus Chain-Growth Polymerization
John J. Karnes, Todd H. Weisgraber, Caitlyn C. Cook +7
We present a general approach to isolate chemical reaction mechanism as an independently controllable variable across chemically distinct systems. Modern approaches to reduce the c…
Observation of a metastable intermediate during solid-solid phase transformation in response to rapid compression
Michael R. Armstrong, Harry B. Radousky, Ryan A. Austin +23
In order to probe the mechanism of solid-solid phase transformations, we have applied ultrafast shock wave compression (120 picosecond duration) and ultrashort (130 femtosecond) x-…
High-Pressure Synthesis of a Pentazolate Salt
Brad A. Steele, Elissaios Stavrou, Jonathan C. Crowhurst +3
The pentazolates, the last all-nitrogen members of the azole series, have been notoriously elusive for the last hundred years despite enormous efforts to make these compounds in ei…
