Article Synopsis
  • The study examines the response of the crystalline material MgIn2Se4 to hydrostatic pressure, focusing on its rhombohedral phase for the first time.
  • Using density functional theory, the researchers explored the polymorphic transitions and stability of different phases under pressure, finding that only the transition from rhombohedral to inverse spinel is thermodynamically stable.
  • They also analyzed the electronic band structures, discovering that as pressure increases, the material retains its semiconductor properties but loses van der Waals interactions, becoming more covalent in nature.
