“…Under ambient conditions, the electrical resistivity (q), Hall coefficient (R H ), carrier concentration (n), and mobility (l) are 0.22 XÁcm, À9.63 cm 3 C À1 , 6.98 Â 10 18 cm À3 , and 407.3 cm 2 V À1 s À1 , respectively. During compression, q, R H , n, and l all show discontinuous changes at 3.8 GPa and 7.8 GPa, according with the XRD measurement, 22 which has proved that Ag 2 S underwent a structural phase transition sequence of LP-HP1-HP2. For convenience, the anti-PbCl 2 -like, Ag 2 Se-type and Co 2 Sirelated phases are referred as the LP, HP1, and HP2 phases, respectively.…”
