Phase Transitions in Group III–V and II–VI Semiconductors at High Pressure

  • Chapter
High-Pressure Science and Technology

Abstract

Compounds of the group III–V and II–VI elements are technologically important. As a result they have been extensively studied, both theoretically and experimentally. There have been several structural studies of the high pressure phases, pioneered by Jamieson [1,2], but above ~ 100 kbar only a few studies of electrical resistance have been reported. Several “transitions” based on abrupt changes in resistivity have been useful as fixed points.
