abstract = {The so-called Wadsley phases with general formula VnO2n+1
form a homologous series ofcompounds [1,2]. They have arisen
much interest due to the observed metal-insulatortransitions
and their potential application as battery materials. The
crystal structures of theparent compound V2O5 and of V6O13
(n=3) at ambient conditions are closely related, being
builtup of edge and corner sharing building units, which can
be described as [VO5]-pyramids in V2O5(space group Pmmn) and
as [VO6]-octahedra in V6O13 (space group C2/m) [3,4].High
pressure Raman and powder diffraction investigations on V2O5
suggest a pressureinducedphase transition between 4 and 7
GPa [5,6]. A recent in-situ high-pressure powderdiffraction
study suggests an irreversible phase transition from α-V2O5
to an amorphous statearound 12.6 GPa while according to
other investigations V2O5 becomes only fully amorphousunder
20.2 GPa [7]. Under high-temperature high-pressure
conditions α-V2O5 converts into β-V2O5 (P21/m) [8].
Ex-situ high-pressure high-temperature synthesis in a multi
anvil pressyielded δ-V2O5 (C2/c) which is isostructural to
Sb2O59. Despite the high level of interest highpressure
investigations using single crystal diffraction have not
been performed, nor was theHP-HT phase diagram of V2O5
studied in situ up to know. In addition, despite the fact
that the lowtemperature metal-insulator transition in V6O13
has been very well studied [10,11], highpressure
investigations have not been performed so far on this
compound.We have now studied single crystals of V2O5 and
V6O13 as a function of pressure at PetraIII, Desy. The
studies on V2O5 show complete irreversible amorphization of
the sample above 7.3GPa and, moreover, anomalies are
observed between 3 and 4 GPa. To further investigate the
HPHTbehaviour of V2O5, we used the large volume press at
ID06 at the ESRF and followed theevolution of the sample
with in-situ synchrotron radiation. Heating of the amorphous
phase leadto the formation of the δ-V2O5 polymorph with
Sb2O5 structure, which can be recovered atambient
conditions. High pressure single crystal diffraction
experiments on V6O13 show ananomalous behaviour between 2
and 3 GPa, yet the ambient pressure polymorph seems to
bestable up to the highest pressures reached in the
experiment.},
