Synthesis and Compressibility of Novel Nickel Carbide at Pressures of Earth’s Outer Core

Synthesis and Compressibility of Novel Nickel Carbide at Pressures of Earth’s Outer Core

We report the high-pressure synthesis and the equation of state (EOS) of a novel nickel carbide (Ni<sub>3</sub>C). It was synthesized in a diamond anvil cell at 184(5) GPa through a direct reaction of a nickel powder with carbon from the diamond anvils upon heating at 3500 (200) K. Ni<...
