Abstract
ABSTRACT The quasi-hydrostatic compression of cesium chloride and cesium bromide has been measured with X-ray diffraction up to 141 GPa at 300 K. A cubic to orthorhombic transition, with a ≥10% distortion of lattice parameters, is evidenced in CsBr around 60 GPa. A smaller distortion (∼1.5%) appears in CsCl at the same pressure, followed by a likely transition to a lower symmetry phase which starts at 134 GPa. P−V compression curves yield equation of state parameters in line with those of other B2 alkali halides.
