Bulk modulus and non-uniform compression of Nb3Te4 and InxNb3Te4 (x <1) channel compounds
The crystal structures of Nb3Te4 and InxNb3Te4 [x = 0.539 (4)] are reported for a series of pressures between 0 and 40 GPa. Both compounds crystallize in space group P63/m with a = b = 10.671 and c = 3.6468 Å for Nb3Te4, and a = b = 10.677 and c = 3.6566 Å for InxNb3Te4 at ambient conditions. Phase transitions were not observed. High-pressure X-ray powder diffraction was measured using a diamond a
