Abstract
Tin selenide (SnSe) holds great potential for abundant future applications, due to its exceptional properties and distinctive layered structure, which can be modified using a variety of techniques. One of the many tuning techniques is pressure manipulating using the diamond anvil cell (DAC), which is a very efficient in situ and reversible approach for modulating the structure and physical properties of SnSe. We briefly summarize the advantages and challenges of experimental study using DAC in this review, then introduce the recent progress and achievements of the pressure-induced structure and performance of SnSe, especially including the influence of pressure on its crystal structure and optical, electronic, and thermoelectric properties. The overall goal of the review is to better understand the mechanics underlying pressure-induced phase transitions and to offer suggestions for properly designing a structural pattern to achieve or enhanced novel properties.

JOURNAL OF PHYSICS. CONDENSED MATTER : AN INSTITUTE OF PHYSICS JOURNAL 2020; 32:465702. [PMID: 32731210 DOI: 10.1088/1361-648x/abaad2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/17/2020] [Accepted: 07/30/2020] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
Abstract
The crystal structure of BiSbTeSe2(Bi2-xSbxTe3-ySey(x= 1.0 andy= 2.0)) at 0-29 GPa is investigated through synchrotron x-ray diffraction (XRD) and two structural phase transitions are discovered. The stoichiometry of BiSbTeSe2employed in this study is Bi1.19(4)Sb0.81(4)Te0.83(4)Se2.17(4), as determined from energy-dispersive x-ray spectroscopy. The sample demonstrated structural transitions, from a rhombohedral structure (space group no 166,R3¯m) (phase I) to a monoclinic structure (space group no 12,C2/m) (phase II), and from phase II to a 9/10-fold monoclinic structure (space group no 12,C2/m) (phase III). The temperature dependence of resistance (R-Tplot) exhibited a semiconducting behavior in a low pressure range and changed from semiconducting to metallic behavior with increasing pressure. Pressure-driven superconductivity is observed above 9.1 GPa in Bi1.19(4)Sb0.81(4)Te0.83(4)Se2.17(4). The pressure phase corresponds to phase II. The superconducting transition temperature,Tc, increased with pressure. The maximumTcvalue is 8.3 K at 19.1 GPa. The magnetic field dependence ofTcin phase II of Bi1.19(4)Sb0.81(4)Te0.83(4)Se2.17(4)is proceeded by ap-wave polar model, indicating topologically nontrivial superconductivity. In addition, the emergence of superconductivity and the change in superconducting behavior are closely associated with the structural transitions.
