AB - Black phosphorus was compressed at room temperature across the A17, A7 and simplecubic phases up to 30GPa, using a diamond anvil cell and He as pressure transmitting medium. Synchrotron Xray diffraction showed the persistence of two previously unreported peaks related to the A7 structure in the pressure range of the simplecubic phase. The Rietveld refinement of the data demonstrates the occurrence of a twostep mechanism for the A7 to simplecubic phase transition, indicating the existence of an intermediate pseudo simplecubic structure. From a chemical point of view this study represents a deep insight on the mechanism of interlayer bond formation during the transformation from the layered A7 to the nonlayered simplecubic phase of phosphorus, opening new perspectives for the design, synthesis and stabilization of phosphorenebased systems. As superconductivity is concerned, a new experimental evidence to explain the anomalous pressure behavior of Tc in phosphorus below 30GPa is provided.
