Journal ArticleDOI

Nanosecond X-ray diffraction of shock-compressed superionic water ice.

TL;DR: The atomic structure of H2O is documented at several million atmospheres of pressure and temperatures of several thousand degrees, revealing shockwave-induced ultrafast crystallization and a novel water ice phase, ice XVIII, with exotic superionic properties.
Journal ArticleDOI

Experimental evidence for superionic water ice using shock compression

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used time-resolved optical pyrometry and laser velocimetry measurements as well as supporting density functional theory-molecular dynamics (DFT-MD) simulations to verify a 30-year-old prediction of superionic conduction in water ice at planetary interior conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mass-Radius Relationships for Exoplanets

TL;DR: In this article, a method for deriving and testing equations of state, and deduce mass-radius and mass-pressure relations for key, relevant materials whose equation of state (EOS) is reasonably well established, and for differentiated Fe/rock.
Journal ArticleDOI

Light emission from silicon-rich nitride nanostructures

TL;DR: In this article, the optical properties of light-emitting Si-rich silicon nitride (SRN) films were studied by micro-Raman and photoluminescence spectroscopy and indicate the presence of small Si clusters characterized by broad near-infrared emission, large absorption/emission Stokes shift, and nanosecond recombination.
Journal ArticleDOI

Solid Iron Compressed Up to 560 GPa

TL;DR: Extended x-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectroscopy offers simultaneous density, temperature, and local-structure measurements for the compressed iron, and the results provide the first constraint on the melting line of iron above 400 GPa.
