High-pressure synthesis of Dirac materials: layered van der Waals bonded BeN polymorph
Maxim Bykov, Timofey Fedotenko, Stella Chariton +17
High pressure chemistry is known to inspire the creation of unexpected new classes of compounds with exceptional properties. Here we report the synthesis at ~90 GPa of novel beryll…
Nuclear Spin Crossover in Dense Molecular Hydrogen
Thomas Meier, Dominique Laniel, Miriam Pena-Alvarez +6
The laws of quantum mechanics are often tested against the behaviour of the lightest element in the periodic table, hydrogen. One of the most striking properties of molecular hydro…
Metallic Hydrogen Sublattice and Proton Mobility in Copper Hydride at High Pressure
Thomas Meier, Florian Trybel, Giacomo Criniti +9
Atomic and electronic structures of Cu2H and CuH have been investigated by high pressure NMR spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction and ab-initio calculations. Metallic Cu2H was synthesiz…
High-pressure polymeric nitrogen allotrope with the black phosphorus structure
Dominique Laniel, Bjoern Winkler, Timofey Fedotenko +6
Studies of polynitrogen phases are of great interest for fundamental science and for the design of novel high energy density materials. Laser heating of pure nitrogen at 140 GPa in…
Novel rhenium carbides at 200 GPa
Saiana Khandarkhaeva, Timofey Fedotenko, Maxim Bykov +7
Laser heating of rhenium in a diamond anvil cell to 3000 K at about 200 GPa results in formation of two previously unknown rhenium carbides, hexagonal WC-type structured ReC and or…
