Journal ArticleDOI
A combined single crystal neutron/X-ray diffraction and solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance study of the hybrid perovskites CH3NH3PbX3 (X = I, Br and Cl)

TL;DR: In this article, the 1H and 13C NMR spectra in methylammonium lead halide perovskites, CH3NH3PbX3 (X = I, Br and Cl) were used to refine some single crystal X-ray and neutron diffraction data to probe their unusual structures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reversible pressure-induced structural transitions between metastable phases of silicon.
TL;DR: In this article, the existence of a reversible pressure-induced first-order structural transition between the metastable Si-III phase (body-centered cubic with 16 atoms per conventional cell or 8 atoms per primitive cell known as BC8) and a topologically distinct rhombohedral structure (Si-XII) was shown.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structure and properties of silicon XII: A complex tetrahedrally bonded phase
TL;DR: In this paper, a detailed investigation of the pressure response of the BC8 structure, suggest plausible atomic trajectories for the \ensuremath{\beta}-sn to R8 transition, and investigate the energy of R8 silicon relative to those of other tetrhedral forms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Geometric effects of deuteration on hydrogen-ordering phase transitions
TL;DR: In this article, a high-pressure neutron diffraction study of the deuterated H(D)-ordering material PbDPO4 was carried out and it was shown that much, and possibly all, of the increase in Tc on deuteration is attributable to the accompanying changes in the hydrogen-bond dimensions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chinese Puzzle Molecule: A 15 Hydride, 28 Copper Atom Nanoball

TL;DR: An intriguing, albeit limited, H2 evolution was observed at room temperature, which is accompanied by formation of the known ion [Cu8 (H)(S2 CNR)6 ](+) upon exposure of solutions to sunlight, under mild thermolytic conditions, and on reaction with weak (or strong) acids.
