Abstract

The crystal chemical features of high-pressure phase transitions of silicates and oxides are discussed in this chapter mostly from the viewpoint of the ionic crystal model. High-pressure phase transitions of rock salt-type mono-oxides to the CsCl- and NiAs-type phases are discussed as examples. The pressure-induced electronic transition from high-spin state to low-spin state of iron in oxides is also described. The stabilities of low- and high-pressure phases are expressed in terms of chemical thermodynamics. Calculation methods of phase equilibria in simple systems at high pressure and high temperature are shown in the thermodynamic framework for applications in mantle minerals.
