摘要
The ThCr2Si2- type compounds EuFe2P2 and EuRu2P2 exhibit as a function of pressure continuous phase transitions which are accompanied by extremely strong changes of the lattice parameters and particularly of the P-P distance d(P-P) along the tetragonal c-axis. In the isostructural integralvalent LaT2P2 compounds similar phase transitions of second (T = Fe) and first order (T = Co) occur as a Function of pressure indicating that the T element essentially determines the nature of the phase transition. The different types of phase transitions are explained phenomenologically. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V, All rights reserved.
