The effects of applied pressure on graphite and its intercalation compounds are reviewed emphasizing the relationship between structure and transport properties. It has long been recognized that high pressure plays a crucial role in the polymorphic phase transitions of graphite, notably in the graphite-diamond transformation. More recent studies have revealed a wealth of pressure-induced phases associated with the unusual layer-stacking ('staging') mechanism in the intercalation compounds of graphite. The high degree of structural anisotropy associated with staging is strongly reflected in the electronic band structure and transport properties, and in the remarkable pressure dependence of the superconducting states of some of the graphite intercalation compounds. High pressure is shown to be a valuable means not only to realize new structural phases but also to improve our understanding of the fundamental behaviour of these important materials. |
