Abstract
The zincblende (B3) to rock salt (B1) in ZnS is a typical pressure-induced phase transition. Meanwhile, B3-ZnS exhibits distinctive multi-phonon coupling behavior. Despite previous studies have explored the B3–B1 transition and phonon behavior in ZnS at room temperature, the effects of low temperature have yet to be experimentally verified. This has resulted in the absence of experimental data on the pressure–temperature (P–T) phase diagram at low temperatures. Here, we probe the pressure-induced B3–B1 phase transition and phonon evolution behavior of ZnS at low temperatures (90–300 K) using isothermal compression Raman spectroscopy. We experimentally determine the ZnS B3–B1 phase boundaries at low temperatures and obtain the corresponding Clapeyron slope, dP/dT = −16.4 ± 2.1 MPa/K. In addition, we found that the pressure coefficients (KiT) of all phonon modes of B3-ZnS decrease with decreasing temperature. This is mainly due to the reduction of anharmonic effects at low temperatures. Further, KiT of the multi-phonon coupling states are always larger than those of the single phonon state.
期刊介绍:
Applied Physics Letters (APL) features concise, up-to-date reports on significant new findings in applied physics. Emphasizing rapid dissemination of key data and new physical insights, APL offers prompt publication of new experimental and theoretical papers reporting applications of physics phenomena to all branches of science, engineering, and modern technology.
In addition to regular articles, the journal also publishes invited Fast Track, Perspectives, and in-depth Editorials which report on cutting-edge areas in applied physics.
APL Perspectives are forward-looking invited letters which highlight recent developments or discoveries. Emphasis is placed on very recent developments, potentially disruptive technologies, open questions and possible solutions. They also include a mini-roadmap detailing where the community should direct efforts in order for the phenomena to be viable for application and the challenges associated with meeting that performance threshold. Perspectives are characterized by personal viewpoints and opinions of recognized experts in the field.
Fast Track articles are invited original research articles that report results that are particularly novel and important or provide a significant advancement in an emerging field. Because of the urgency and scientific importance of the work, the peer review process is accelerated. If, during the review process, it becomes apparent that the paper does not meet the Fast Track criterion, it is returned to a normal track.
