Abstract

We carried out the accurate in situ angle derisive x-ray diffraction experiments and the electrical resistivity in CaS under high pressure. The result shows the pressure-induced phase transition of CaS from Na Cl-type structure (the space group Fm3m, phase I ) to Cs Cl-type structure (the space group Pm3m, phase II ) is reversible and the transition point is around 40.0 GPa; in the meantime, the electrical resistivity and light permeability decrease as the pressure increases and occur obvious discontinuities at the corresponding phase transition point; the result of the first-principles calculations is in concordance with the measurement results.
