Abstract

We describe the synthesis of nitrides of iridium and palladium using the laser-heated diamond anvil cell. We have used the in-situ techniques of x-ray powder diffraction and Raman scattering to characterize these compounds and have compared our experimental findings where possible to the results of first-principles theoretical calculations. We suggest that palladium nitride is isostructural with pyrite while iridium nitride has a monoclinic symmetry and may be isostructural with baddeleyite.
