Tellurium sublattice instability driven amorphization in the chalcogenide AgSbTe2 under pressure
Baihong Sun, Zihan Zhang, Wei Luo +12
Pressure provides a powerful thermodynamic route to access hidden structural states in functional materials, yet the microscopic origin of pressure-induced amorphization remains el…
High pressure synthesis and structural study of AuGa2 intermetallic compound
Azkar Saeed Ahmad, Zhuoyang Yu, Sizhe Wang +8
We report the synthesis of the AuGa2 intermetallic compound, using a direct reaction of the relevant elements at room temperature and at very low pressure. The pressure needed to s…
Comparative high-pressure structural and electrical transport properties study of thermoelectric (Bi1-xSbx)2Te3 compounds
Chenxin Wei, Dawod Muhamed, Wenting Lu +11
Thermoelectric (Bi1-x Sbx)2Te3 (BST-x) compounds with x=0.2, 0.7 and 0.9 have been studied using synchrotron angle-dispersive powder x-ray diffraction in a diamond anvil cell up to…
High Pressure Structural Behavior of Silicon Telluride (Si2Te3) Nanoplates
Bohan Li, Frank Cerasoli, Ethan Chen +3
The high-pressure behavior of silicon telluride (Si2Te3), a two-dimensional (2D) layered material, was investigated using synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction in a diamond anvil ce…
