Pressure is an important thermodynamic parameter since it allows an increase of matter
density by reducing volume. The reduction of volume by applying high pressures leads to an …

The generalized gradient approximation (GGA) within the framework of density functional
theory (DFT) has been used to investigate the phase transition, electronic, elastic and optical …

X-ray diffraction measurements on the sphalerite-derivatives ZnGa 2 Se 4 and CdGa 2 S 4
have been performed upon compression up to 23 GPa in a diamond-anvil cell. ZnGa 2 Se 4 …

High-pressure optical absorption and Raman scattering measurements have been
performed in defect chalcopyrite (DC) CdGa 2 Se 4 up to 22 GPa during two pressure cycles …

Optical absorption measurements at high pressure have been performed in two phases of
the ordered-vacancy compound (OVC) ZnGa 2 Se 4: defect stannite (DS) and defect …

First-principles calculations were performed to investigate the elastic, electronic, and optical
properties of defect-chalcopyrite (DC) structure CdGa 2 X 4 (X= S, Se) compounds. The …

In this work, we focus on the study of the structural and elastic properties of mercury
digallium sulfide (HgGa 2 S 4) at high pressures. This compound belongs to the family of AB …

In this paper, we have performed electronic and optical investigations for ternary bulk
chalcopyrite's ZnGa 2 X 4 (X= S, Se) to explore their utility as solar cell materials. The …

This paper reports a joint experimental and theoretical study of the electronic band structure
of two ordered-vacancy compounds with defect-chalcopyrite structure: CdGa 2 S 4 and …

The pressure-dependent phase behavior of semiconducting chalcopyrite ZnSiP 2 was
studied up to 30 GPa using in situ X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy in a diamond …
