From Raman spectra・・・ ・The original crystal structure appears to be stable over the pressure range 0-5 GPa. ・The molecular identity is retained and no major distortions occur. From X-ray diffraction・・・ ・Structural transition to fcc phase appears at 6.9 GPa. ・In phase Ⅱ(fcc), molecular dissociation occurs. ・Metallization may occur about 11 GPa. In future・・・ I will measure electric resistivity to confirm metallization. Summary
