  • As a class of stable low-resistivity and high-temperature materials, tantalum disilicide (TaSi2) has been widely used in integrated circuits.Therefore, its electrical stability is as important as its structural stability.Here, we report the electronic transport properties of TaSi2 based on structural stability under high pressure.Its stable crystallographic structure was studied by synchrotron X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy experiments up to 20 GPa.In situ high-pressure resistance measurements revealed that the resistivity of TaSi2 has a trend to be steady at the value of about 2 μΩ·cm under pressure increasing up to 16.3 GPa.Futher, the electronic structure of TaSi2 under pressure was theoretically calculated to understand its metallic behavior.
