Pressure-Induced Change in the Fermi Surface and Electronic Structure of Metals

摘要

Hydrostatic pressure coupled with temperatures near absolute zero has proven to be an extremely important environment in the study of the Fermi surface and electronic structure of metals. This environment allows critical testing of theoretical models for the electronic structure and allows access to regions of the phase diagram of the material where interesting and desirable properties may be isolated and studied.
