Metal-insulator transition in Mott-insulator FePS3

We have prepared single crystal of layered Mott-insulator FePS3 and investigated the pressure dependence of the electrical resistivity. FePS3 shows a metal-insulator transition between 10 and 11 GPa. In the insulating region, the activation energy increases continuously with decreasing the pressure...
