A high-pressure synchrotron x-ray powder diffraction study of K2SnBr6
Description
Using synchrotron energy-dispersive x-ray powder diffraction (EDXRPD) we have shown that K2SnBr6 transforms at pressures of 14 kbar and above from the parent monoclinic cell to a cubic structure of symmetry Fm3m, which is stable to 120 kbar. A different phase appears to exist above 120 kbar. (author)
