High-pressure stability and compressibility of APO4 (A = La, Nd, Eu, Gd, Er, and Y) orthoposphates: A synchrotron powder x-ray diffraction study

R. Lacomba-Perales, D. Errandonea, Y. Meng +1

Room temperature angle-dispersive x-ray diffraction measurements on zircon-type YPO4 and ErPO4, and monazite-type GdPO4, EuPO4, NdPO4, and LaPO4 were performed in a diamond-anvil c…
