Abstract
In this work, the structure stability of hexagonal Bi(PO[Formula: see text](H2O)[Formula: see text] has been investigated by high-pressure synchrotron X-ray diffraction measurements. The results show that the structure is stable within the pressure up to 18.3 GPa. The diffraction data are refined and the lattice constants [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are determined, which is compressed by 6.3(7)% and 3.5(0)% within the experimental pressure, respectively. By fitting the pressure dependence of [Formula: see text] (unit cell volume divided by that at ambient pressure) with the second-order Birch equation of state, the bulk modulus [Formula: see text] is given to be about 87.1(0) GPa.
