Fe-rich natural orthopyroxenes with compositions of (Mg0.61Fe0.38Ca0.01)SiO3 (Fe#38) and (Mg0.25Fe0.74Ca0.01)SiO3 (Fe#74) were studied at pressures up to 155 GPa and temperatures up to 3000 K. Single-phase orthorhombic GdFeO3-type perovskite was synthesized by heating to similar to 2000 K at 63 GPa for the Fe#38 composition and at 72 GPa for the Fe#74 composition. At lower pressures, heating both compositions resulted in a mixture of perovskite, SiO2 and (Mg,Fe)O. These measurements provide new constraints on the dependence of (Mg,Fe)SiO3 perovskite stability on pressure and composition. Upon further compression and heating at 89 and 99 GPa, Fe#38 and Fe#74 perovskites transformed to two-phase mixtures of perovskite and post-perovskite, consistent with previous findings that increasing Fe content lowers the transition pressure. The volume of (Mg,Fe)SiO3 perovskites increases linearly with Fe-content. Volume data were fit to the Birch-Murnaghan equation of state. The bulk modulus at 80 GPa is 550-560 GPa for both Fe-rich perovskites, comparable to or slightly higher than the values measured for MgSiO3 perovskite at this pressure, indicating that the bulk modulus of perovskite is not strongly sensitive to Fe content.

High pressure studies of 2D materials and heterostructures: A review

High-pressure metallic $\ensuremath{\beta}\text{\ensuremath{-}}\mathrm{Sn}$ silicon (Si-II), depending on temperature, decompression rate, stress, etc., may transform to diverse metastable forms with promising semiconducting properties under decompression. However, the underlying mechanisms governing the different transformation paths are not well understood. Here, two distinctive pathways, viz., a thermally activated crystal-crystal transition and a mechanically driven amorphization, were characterized under rapid decompression of Si-II at various temperatures using in situ time-resolved x-ray diffraction. Under slow decompression, Si-II transforms to a crystalline bc8/r8 phase in the pressure range of 4.3--9.2 GPa through a thermally activated process where the overdepressurization and the onset transition strain are strongly dependent on decompression rate and temperature. In comparison, Si-II collapses structurally to an amorphous form at around 4.3 GPa when the volume expansion approaches a critical strain via rapid decompression beyond a threshold rate. The occurrence of the critical strain indicates a limit of the structural metastability of Si-II, which separates the thermally activated and mechanically driven transition processes. The results show the coupled effect of decompression rate, activation barrier, and thermal energy on the adopted transformation paths, providing atomistic insight into the competition between equilibrium and nonequilibrium pathways and the resulting metastable phases.

Temperature- and Rate-Dependent Pathways in Formation of Metastable Silicon Phases under Rapid Decompression.

The presence of extremely large negative linear compressibilities (NLC) in crystalline silver oxalate was discovered in a recent work by using first principles solid-state calculations. Although the minimum value of the NLC was found for a negative applied hydrostatic pressure, in this work the presence of NLC in this material for positive applied pressures is verified experimentally by means of high-pressure X-ray diffraction experiments performed at room temperature in the Beijing synchrotron radiation facility. The results of this study demonstrate with certainty that the compressibility of silver oxalate along [010] crystallographic direction is negative for applied pressures in the range from 0.0 to 0.85 GPa. Since the measured compressibility decreases largely as the pressure decreases, large negative values of the compressibility are expected for negative applied pressures in agreement with the results found using first principles methods. Furthermore, the analysis of the variation of the lattice parameters of the crystal structure of silver oxalate under pressure in the principal axes reference system revealed that this material also exhibits the largest negative area compressibility phenomenon found so far at zero pressure, the values of the compressibilities along two of the principal axes being − 16.7 and − 20.0

. The negative compressibility phenomenon in silver oxalate can be rationalized in terms of a “chains of rotating parallelograms” structural model.

Negative area compressibility in silver oxalate

The study of nonequilibrium transition dynamics on structural transformation from the second to microsecond regime, a time scale between static and shock compression, is an emerging field of high-pressure research. There are ample opportunities to uncover novel physical phenomena within this time regime. Herein, we briefly review the development and application of a dynamic compression technique based on a diamond anvil cell (DAC) and time-resolved X-ray diffraction (TRXRD) for the study of time-, pressure-, and temperature-dependent structural dynamics. Applications of the techniques are illustrated with our recent investigations on the mechanisms of the interconversions between different high-pressure ice polymorphs. These examples demonstrate that a combination of dynamic compression and TRXRD is a versatile approach capable of providing information on the kinetics and thermodynamic nature associated with structural transformations. Future improvement of rapid compression and TRXRD techniques and potentially interesting research topics in this area are suggested.

High-Pressure Nonequilibrium Dynamics on Second-to-Microsecond Time Scales: Application of Time-Resolved X-ray Diffraction and Dynamic Compression in Ice.

This article summarizes the developments of experimental techniques for high pressure x-ray diffraction(XRD) in diamond anvil cells(DACs) using synchrotron radiation. Basic principles and experimental methods for various diffraction geometry are described, including powder diffraction, single crystal diffraction, radial diffraction, as well as coupling with laser heating system. Resolution in d-spacing of different diffraction modes is discussed. More recent progress, such as extended application of single crystal diffraction for measurements of multigrain and electron density distribution, timeresolved diffraction with dynamic DAC and development of modulated heating techniques are briefly introduced. The current status of the high pressure beamline at BSRF(Beijing Synchrotron Radiation Facility) and some results are also presented.
