Prediction of an alternative route to polymeric carbon dioxide: A metastable energetic material
Reetam Paul, Jonathan C. Crowhurst, Stanimir A. Bonev
The use of pressure to obtain new materials that can be recovered under ambient conditions is a central problem in high-pressure physics. Despite decades of research, this goal has…

Photo-induced electronic excitations drive polymerization of carbon monoxide: A first-principles study
Rasool Ahmad, Jonathan C. Crowhurst, Stanimir A. Bonev
Under pressure, carbon monoxide (CO) transforms into a polymer that can be recovered to ambient conditions. While this transformation can occur without additional stimuli, experime…
