摘要
The phase transition induced by pressure in the PbS and HgS nanocrystals was studied by in situ high pressure X-ray powder diffraction measurements. PbS underwent a phase transition from B1-B16 at 7 GPa whereas no transition was observed in HgS up to 15 GPa. The transition remained unaltered on the release of pressure. The volume decreased with an increase in pressure. There is a shift in transition pressure towards the higher side when compared with the bulk materials.
