Experimental and Computational Studies on Superhard Material Rhenium Diboride under Ultrahigh Pressures

An emerging class of superhard materials for extreme environment applications are compounds formed by heavy transition metals with light elements. In this work, ultrahigh pressure experiments on transition metal rhenium diboride (<i>ReB<sub>2</sub></i>) were carried out in a...
