Pressure-induced order–disorder transition in Gd1.5Ce0.5Ti2O7 pyrochlore

An experimental study on ordered pyrochlore structured Gd1.5Ce0.5Ti2O7 (Fd3¯m) was carried out up to 45 GPa by synchrotron radiation X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy. Experimental results show that Gd1.5Ce0.5Ti2O7 transfers to a disordered cotunnite-like phase (Pnma Z = 4) at approximately 4...
