Abstract
We report a detailed high pressure study on Eu1−xSrxTiO3 polycrystalline samples using synchrotron x-ray diffraction. We have observed a second-order antiferrodistortive phase transition for all doping levels which corresponds to the transition that has been previously explored as a function of temperature. The analysis of the compression mechanism by calculating the lattice parameters, spontaneous strains and tilt angles of the TiO6 octahedra leads to a high pressure phase diagram for Eu1−xSrxTiO3.
