Journal ArticleDOI
Cubic to tetragonal phase transformation in cold-compressed Pd nanocubes.
TL;DR: This novel discovery provides new insights into the pressure-induced behavior of faceted nanocrystals of palladium and other noble metals but also gives guidance for finding new phases in close-packed metals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ultrahigh-pressure isostructural electronic transitions in hydrogen
Cheng Ji,Bing Li,Wenjun Liu,Jesse S. Smith,Arnab Majumdar,Wei Luo,Rajeev Ahuja,Jinfu Shu,Junyue Wang,Stanislav V. Sinogeikin,Yue Meng,Yue Meng,Vitali B. Prakapenka,Eran Greenberg,Ruqing Xu,Xianrong Huang,Wenge Yang,Guoyin Shen,Guoyin Shen,Wendy L. Mao,Ho-kwang Mao +20 more
TL;DR: X-ray diffraction measurements of solid hydrogen provide crystallographic information for high-pressure phases of hydrogen and transitions between them, suggesting a series of isostructural transitions under compression before band closure and metallization.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dehydrogenation of goethite in Earth’s deep lower mantle
Qingyang Hu,Duck Young Kim,Jin Liu,Yue Meng,Liuxiang Yang,Dongzhou Zhang,Wendy L. Mao,Ho-kwang Mao +7 more
TL;DR: Observations indicate a fundamental change in the mode of hydrogen release from dehydration in the upper mantle to dehydrogenation in the deep lower mantle, thus differentiating the deep hydrogen and hydrous cycles.
Journal ArticleDOI
When water meets iron at Earth's core-mantle boundary
Ho-kwang Mao,Qingyang Hu,Qingyang Hu,Liuxiang Yang,Jin Liu,Duck Young Kim,Yue Meng,Li Zhang,Vitali B. Prakapenka,Wenge Yang,Wendy L. Mao +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that when water meets iron at the core-mantle boundary, they react to form an interlayer with an extremely oxygen-rich form of iron, iron dioxide, together with iron hydride.
Journal ArticleDOI
Disproportionation of (Mg,Fe)SiO3 perovskite in Earth’s deep lower mantle
Li Zhang,Yue Meng,Wenge Yang,Lin Wang,Wendy L. Mao,Wendy L. Mao,Qiaoshi Zeng,Jong Seok Jeong,Andrew Wagner,K. Andre Mkhoyan,Wenjun Liu,Ruqing Xu,Ho-kwang Mao +12 more
TL;DR: It is found that the major mineral phase of the lower mantle decomposes into two minerals, including a nearly Fe-free MgSiO3 perovskite phase and an Fe-rich phase with a hexagonal structure.
