摘要
In this paper we report the synthesis of a ternary-layered ceramic, Ti2GeC, a 211 M(n+1)AX(n) compound by hot-pressing. X-ray analysis confirmed the hexagonal crystal symmetry. Using a synchrotron radiation and a diamond anvil cell, we measured the pressure dependencies of the lattice parameters. The phase is structurally stable up to the 49 GPa-the maximum experimental pressure reached. The bulk modulus of Ti2GeC calculated using the Birch-Murnaghan equation of state is 211 +/- 4GPa with K' = 3.9 +/- 0.2. Surprisingly the bulk modulus was found to be greater than both Ti2AlC and Ti2SC by 13% and 10%. Also, Ti2GeC has the highest bulk modulus among M2GeC phases where M = Ti, V, Cr.
