Pressure-induced metallization and reentrant insulativity in elemental crystal of phosphorus: a prediction by ab initio calculations
Elemental materials made up from just one type of element is more unpredictable than people usually think at pressures. For examples, alkali metals are reported to transform into insulator firstly and then reenter into metallic state with pressures. Here, we have deeply investigated the structures a...
