摘要
Multiple phase transitions are detected in sodium amide(NaNH2), an important hydrogen storage material, upon compression in diamond anvil cells(DAC) by using Raman spectroscopy and x-ray diffraction(XRD) measurements.Additional Bragg reflections appear on lower and higher angle sides of the original ones at ~1.07 GPa and 1.84 GPa,accompanied by obvious changes in Raman spectroscopy, respectively.It reveals that NaNH2 undergoes the high-pressure phase sequence(α-β-γ) up to 20 GPa at room temperature.Spectral analysis indicates an orthorhombic structure with PBAN space group for the γ phase.We also experimentally observe high pressure induced recrystallization in alkaline amide compounds for the first time.
