We studied the crystal and magnetic structure of Ca2RuO4 by different diffraction techniques under high pressure. The observed first order phase transition at moderate pressure (0.5 GPa) between the insulating phase and the metallic high pressure phase is characterized by a broad region of phase coexistence. The following structural changes are observed as function of pressure: a) a discontinuous change of both the tilt and rotation angle of the RuO6-Octahedra at this transition, b) a gradual decrease of the tilt angle in the high pressure phase (p>0.5 GPa) and c) the disappearance of the tilt above 5.5GPa leading to a higher symmetry structure. By single crystal neutron diffraction at low temperature, the ferromagnetic component of the high pressure phase and a rearrangement of antiferromagnetic order in the low pressure phase was observed.

We have investigated the in-plane uniaxial pressure effect on the antiferromagnetic Mott insulator Ca2RuO4 from resistivity and magnetization measurements. We succeeded in inducing the ferromagnetic metallic phase at lower critical pressure than by h
ydrostatic pressure, indicating that the flattening distortion of the RuO6 octahedra is more easily released under in-plane uniaxial pressure. We also found a striking in-plane anisotropy in the pressure responses of various magnetic phases: Although the magnetization increases monotonically with pressure diagonal to the orthorhombic principal axes, the magnetization exhibits peculiar dependence on pressure along the in-plane orthorhombic principal axes. This peculiar dependence can be explained by a qualitative difference between the uniaxial pressure effects along the orthorhombic a and b axes, as well as by the presence of twin domain structures.
A review of high-pressure studies on Fe-pnictide superconductors is given. The pressure effects on the magnetic and superconducting transitions are discussed for different classes of doped and undoped FeAs-compounds, ROFeAs (R = rare earth), AeFe2As2
(Ae = Ca, Sr, Ba), and AFeAs (A = Li, Na). Pressure tends to decrease the magnetic transition temperature in the undoped or only slightly doped compounds. The superconducting Tc increases with pressure for underdoped FeAs-pnictides, remains approximately constant for optimal doping, and decreases linearly in the overdoped range. The undoped LaOFeAs and AeFe2As2 become superconducting under pressure although nonhydrostatic pressure conditions seem to play a role in CaFe2As2. The superconductivity in the (undoped) AFeAs is explained as a chemical pressure effect due to the volume contraction caused by the small ionic size of the A-elements. The binary FeSe shows the largest pressure coefficient of Tc in the Se-deficient superconducting phase.
Here we show that the low temperature phase of magnetite is associated with an effective, although fractional, ordering of the charge. Evidence and a quantitative evaluation of the atomic charges are achieved by using resonant x-ray diffraction (RXD)
experiments whose results are further analyzed with the help of ab initio calculations of the scattering factors involved. By confirming the results obtained from X-ray crystallography we have shown that RXD is able to probe quantitatively the electronic structure in very complex oxides, whose importance covers a wide domain of applications.
The layered perovskite Ca2RuO4 is a spin-one Mott insulator at ambient pressure and exhibits metallic ferromagnetism at least up to ~ 80 kbar with a maximum Curie temperature of 28 K. Above ~ 90 kbar and up to 140 kbar, the highest pressure reached,
the resistivity and ac susceptibility show pronounced downturns below ~ 0.4 K in applied magnetic fields of up to ~10 mT. This indicates that our specimens of Ca2RuO4 are weakly superconducting on the border of a quasi-2D ferromagnetic state.
The pressure effects on the JT distortion of three representative compounds belonging to the LaMn_1-xGa_xO_3 (x= 0.2, 0.3, 0.4) family was widely investigated by means of X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy. A compound with a fully JT distorted
structure (x=0.2), one with regular octahedra (x=0.6) and one in an intermediate configuration (x=0.3) were selected. A pressure induced transitions from the orthorhombic Pbnm phase towards structures with higher symmetry were observed in all the samples. Both Raman and X-ray data confirm that the most important structural effect of pressure is that of reducing the octahedral distortion. The appearance of a feature in the lattice parameter behavior connected to a structural instability was also detected, pointing out the key role of the JT distortion in stabilizing the manganite structures. On the other hand, the complete suppression of the JT distortion in the high-pressure phases cannot be claimed. The Raman spectra collected from more distorted compounds (x=0.2, 0.3) reveal clearly the coexistence of domains of distorted and more regular octahedra in a certain pressure range. The first sketch of the Pressure vs. Ga-content phase diagram was drawn.
