Abstract
The phase transformation of graphitelike BN (h-BN) to wurtzite-type high-pressure BN (w-BN) was investigated through shock-recovery techniques under quasihydrodynamic and nonhydrodynamic shock compressions and under various strain conditions. The experimental results support a diffusionless mechanism, by which the hydrodynamic c-axis compression of h-BN is preferred. This mechanism is topologically considered based on the relationship of crystal structures between h-BN and w-BN. The presence of deviatoric stress and strain depresses the yield of w-BN and the development of w-BN (100) relative to (002).This publication has 9 references indexed in Scilit:
