“…The athermal high pressure study of the stability and the electronic structure of cobalt monosilicide and the monosilicides of the platinum group elements extends the results of previous theoretical and experimental studies at 0 GPa and ambient conditions [7,10,11,16,26,30,32]. RuSi and OsSi adopt the same low pressure (e-FeSi) and high pressure (CsCl) structures as FeSi, and show relatively comparable semiconductor electronic behaviour.…”
