Structural Phase Transition and Compressibility of CaF2 Nanocrystals under High Pressure

Structural Phase Transition and Compressibility of CaF2 Nanocrystals under High Pressure

The structural phase transition and compressibility of CaF2 nanocrystals with size of 23 nm under high pressure were investigated by synchrotron X-ray diffraction measurement. A pressure-induced fluorite to α-PbCl2-type phase transition starts at 9.5 GPa and completes at 20.2 GPa. The phas...
