摘要
We report the investigations on the structural and electronic properties of an inverse spinel Fe3S4 at high pressures using synchrotron x-ray diffraction (XRD) and electrical transport measurements. Our XRD measurements at high pressures reveal an irreversible structural phase transformation on compression above similar to 3 GPa from a cubic spinel (Fd-3m space group) into a monoclinic Cr3S4-type structure (I2/m space group). Electrical transport measurements suggest that the high pressure monoclinic phase has a semiconducting behavior. This semiconducting behavior is found to persist up to the highest pressure of measurement of similar to 23 GPa. These results show that while Fe3S4 possesses similar high pressure structural properties with other thiospinels, the electronic properties under pressure show a rather strong similarity to its oxide counterpart, Fe3O4, at high pressures.
