Understanding the Unusual Response to High Pressure in KBe(2)BO(3)F(2)

Strong anisotropic compression with pressure on the remarkable non-linear optical material KBe(2)BO(3)F(2) has been observed with the linear compression coefficient along the c axis found to be about 40 times larger than that along the a axis. An unusual non-monotonic pressure response was observed...

description Strong anisotropic compression with pressure on the remarkable non-linear optical material KBe(2)BO(3)F(2) has been observed with the linear compression coefficient along the c axis found to be about 40 times larger than that along the a axis. An unusual non-monotonic pressure response was observed for the a lattice parameter. The derived bulk modulus of 31 ± 1 GPa indicates that KBe(2)BO(3)F(2) is a very soft oxide material yet with stable structure up to 45 GPa. A combination of high-pressure synchrotron powder X-ray diffraction, high-pressure Raman spectroscopy, and Density Functional Theory calculations points to the mechanism for the unusual pressure response being due to the competition between the K-F bond length and K-F-K bond angle and the coupling between the stretching and twisting vibration modes.
