New Phases and Dissociation-Recombination of Hydrogen Deuteride to 3.4 Megabar
Ranga P. Dias, Ori Noked, Isaac F. Silvera
We present infrared absorption studies of solid hydrogen deuteride to pressures as high as 3.4 megabar in a diamond anvil cell and temperatures in the range 5 to 295 K. Above 198 G…
Optical properties of inhomogeneous metallic hydrogen plasmas
N. Van den Broeck, F. Brosens, J. Tempere +1
We investigate the optical properties of hydrogen as it undergoes a transition from the insulating molecular to the metallic atomic phase, when heated by a pulsed laser at megabar…
A First-order Phase Transition to Metallic Hydrogen
Mohamed Zaghoo, Ashkan Salamat, Isaac F. Silvera
The insulator-metal transition in hydrogen is one of the most outstanding problems in condensed matter physics. The high-pressure metallic phase is now predicted to be liquid atomi…
