Optical and structural study of the pressure-induced phase transition of CdWO${}_4$

J. Ruiz-Fuertes, A. Friedrich, D. Errandonea +5

The optical absorption of CdWO${}_4$ is reported at high pressures up to 23 GPa. The onset of a phase transition was detected at 19.5 GPa, in good agreement with a previous Raman spe…
