    Structural and Electronic Transformations of GeSe2 Glass Under High Pressures Studied by X-Ray Absorption Spectroscopy
    (Natl Acad Sciences, 2024-03-27) Mijit, Emin; Durandurdu, Murat; Rodrigues, Joao Elias F. S.; Trapananti, Angela; Rezvani, S. Javad; Rosa, Angelika Dorothea; Di Cicco, Andrea; Javad Rezvani, S.
    Pressure-induced transformations in an archetypal chalcogenide glass (GeSe2) have been investigated up to 157 GPa by X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Ge and Se K-edge XAS data allowed simultaneous tracking of the correlated local structural and electronic changes at both Ge and Se sites. Thanks to the simultaneous analysis of extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) signals of both edges, reliable quantitative information about the evolution of the first neighbor Ge-Se distribution could be obtained. It also allowed to account for contributions of the Ge-Ge and Se-Se bond distributions (chemical disorder). The low-density to high-density amorphous-amorphous transformation was found to occur within 10 to 30 GPa pressure range, but the conversion from tetrahedral to octahedral coordination of the Ge sites is completed above similar to 80 GPa. No convincing evidence of another high-density amorphous state with coordination number larger than six was found within the investigated pressure range. The number of short Ge-Ge and Se-Se "wrong" bonds was found to increase upon pressurization. Experimental XAS results are confirmed by MD simulations, indicating the increase of chemical disorder under high pressure.

    Insights of Co2 Adsorption Performance of Amine Impregnated Mesoporous Silica (SBA-15) at Wide Range Pressure and Temperature Conditions
    (Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2015-12) Ullah, Ruh; Atilhan, Mert; Aparicio, Santiago; Canlier, Ali; Yavuz, Cafer T.
    Beside IGCC, efficient storage and transportation of CO2 and other gases require pressurize conditions. CO2 and other gases adsorption on solid sorbents at high pressure and various temperatures are extremely important as long as the environmental purification via gas capture and separation and gas transpiration are concern. The main objective of the present research was to investigate the effect of amine impregnation on the CO2, methane and nitrogen adsorption capacity of mesoporous silica (SBA-15). Ordered mesoporous silica (SBA-15) was prepared and modified with ammonium hydroxide solution to introduce NH2 functional groups within the pores of materials to produce modified SBA-15 (MSBA-15). The newly prepared materials were characterized with X-ray diffraction analysis, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) analysis were performed to measure pore volume as well as the surface area of both the unmodified and modified samples. Results revealed that the crystal structures of SBA-15 were matched with that of MSBA15; yet, pore volume of the modified material was almost reduced to 50% of the pristine material indicating amine loading into the pore channels. Importantly, gas sorption capacity was investigated at 200 bars and three different temperatures of 318 K, 328 K, and 338 K by using state-of-the-art gravimetric Rubotherm(R) magnetic suspension sorption apparatus. Gas sorption experiments showed that modified mesoporous silica adsorbed 1.6164 mmol/g of CO2 at 1 bar which is almost double than that of 0.6462 mmol/g adsorbed by unmodified material. Quantitative selectivity of both the materials varied as CO2 > CH4 > N-2. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

    Amorphous Zirconia at High Pressure
    (Wiley, 2018-06-08) Durandurdu, Murat
    We show, by means of ab initio calculations, that amorphous zirconia progressively transforms to a high-density amorphous phase with the application of pressure. The average coordination number of Zr and O atoms under pressure rises gradually to 8 and 4, respectively. The main building unit of the dense noncrystalline state is the eightfold-coordinated Zr atoms (62.5%). When the coordinated modification of Zr atoms in the zirconia crystal at high pressure and temperature conditions is considered, it can be perceived that amorphous zirconia follows a transformation mechanism similar to the one observed at high temperature but different than the one detected at high pressure. The dense disordered phase is indeed found to be locally comparable with the high-temperature tetragonal crystal. Upon decompression, some high-pressure arrangements are persevered in the model and a transformation into another amorphous state whose structure is intermediate between uncompressed and dense amorphous phases is observed in the simulations. The high-pressure amorphous structures are found to be semiconductors with a band gap smaller than that of the original model.
