Abstract

X-ray diffraction studies of pressure-induced intralayer and interlayer structural phase transitions in alkali GIC’s are discussed with particular emphasis on KC24 and CsC36. It is shown that such transitions involve the well-defined layer stoichiometries MC8 and MC12 which occur in ambient pressure compounds. Stage 1 MC8 compounds exhibit no structural transitions at pressures up to 13 kbar but show a Hook’s law behavior from which their compressibilities have been determined.
