Plasmons in Li under compression
2019
: We report the high-pressure behavior of plasmon in polycrystalline Li up to 15 GPa at room temperature studied by inelastic x-ray scattering and ab initio calculation. The plasmon energy ([Formula: see text]) increases with decreasing atomic volume ([Formula: see text]), and the [Formula: see text] slope exhibits a discontinuity at bcc → fcc structural phase boundary reflecting the electronic band structure change. The plasmon peak width ([Formula: see text]) versus momentum transfer (q) curve of bcc-Li below 6.5 GPa keeps similar parabola-like shape. Above 8.4 GPa, where Li is in fcc, it changes from that of bcc-Li and has a convex shape.
