Abstract: | Rare-earth-metal-doped fullerides with nominal composition of R_3C_<70> (R=Sm, Eu) adopt a pseudomonoclinic structure in which C_<70> dimers glued with rare-earth ions are involved. High-pressure powder x-ray diffraction experiments revealed that these compounds undergo a reversible first-order structural phase transition at 1.5 GPa, associated with 2.7%-2.9% reduction of the unit cell volume. Structural analyses showed that the rare-earth ions, which are located close to the edge of tetrahedral sites at ambient pressure, move back to the center of the tetrahedral sites. Simultaneously, C_70 molecules are realigned so that the fivefold (long) axes are perpendicular to the (101^ ̄) or (111^ ̄)_<fcc> plane at high pressure. The derived charge density map indicates that the transition is regarded as a structural change from dimers to three-dimensional polymers of fullerenes. These features are ascribed to the unique bonding nature in rare-earth C_<70> compounds. |
