Superdense Hexagonal BP and AlP with Quartz Topology: Crystal Chemistry and DFT Study

The superdense hexagonal phosphides BP and AlP, whose structures are formed by distorted tetrahedra and characterized by quartz-derived (<b>qtz</b>) topology, were predicted from crystal chemistry and first principles as potential high-pressure phases. From full geometry structure relaxa...
