Annotatsiya

Two-dimensional materials have proven to be a prolific breeding ground of new and unstudied forms of magnetism and unusual metallic states, particularly when tuned between their insulating and metallic phases. Here we present work on a new metal-to-insulator transition system FePS_{3}. This compound is a two-dimensional van der Waals antiferromagnetic Mott insulator. We report the discovery of an insulator-metal transition in FePS_{3}, as evidenced by x-ray diffraction and electrical transport measurements, using high pressure as a tuning parameter. Two structural phase transitions are observed in the x-ray diffraction data as a function of pressure, and resistivity measurements show evidence of the onset of a metallic state at high pressures. We propose models for the two new structures that can successfully explain the x-ray diffraction patterns.
