Phase transition of tetragonal copper sulfide Cu2S at low temperatures
2017
The low-temperature behavior of tetragonal copper sulfide, ${\mathrm{Cu}}_{2}\mathrm{S}$, was investigated by powder and single-crystal x-ray diffraction, calorimetry, electrical resistance measurements, and ambient temperature optical absorption spectroscopy. The experiments were complemented by density-functional-theory-based calculations. High-quality, polycrystalline samples and single crystals of tetragonal copper sulfide were synthesized at 5 GPa and 700 K in a large volume multianvil press. Tetragonal ${\mathrm{Cu}}_{2}\mathrm{S}$ undergoes a temperature-induced phase transition to an orthorhombic structure at around 202 K with a hysteresis of $\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}21$ K, an e…

Ambient-temperature high-pressure-induced ferroelectric phase transition in CaMnTi2O6
2017
The ferroelectric to paraelectric phase transition of multiferroic ${\mathrm{CaMnTi}}_{2}{\mathrm{O}}_{6}$ has been investigated at high pressures and ambient temperature by second-harmonic generation (SHG), Raman spectroscopy, and powder and single-crystal x-ray diffraction. We have found that ${\mathrm{CaMnTi}}_{2}{\mathrm{O}}_{6}$ undergoes a pressure-induced structural phase transition ($P{4}_{2}mc\ensuremath{\rightarrow}P{4}_{2}/nmc$) at $\ensuremath{\sim}7\phantom{\rule{0.16em}{0ex}}\mathrm{GPa}$ to the same paraelectric structure found at ambient pressure and ${T}_{c}=630\phantom{\rule{0.16em}{0ex}}\mathrm{K}$. The continuous linear decrease of the SHG intensity that disappears at 7 …
