Powder X-ray diffraction patterns of the binary unfilled skutterudite compoundsMX3(M= Co, Rh, and Ir;X= As and Sb) have been studied under high pressures up to 60 GPa, using synchrotron radiation and a diamond anvil cell. The X-ray diffraction patterns ofMX3above a critical pressure show anomalous reductions in the intensities of several Bragg peaks. Furthermore, the pressure-volume curves ofMX3reveal a saturation behavior of the volume reduction with pressure. Upon pressure release,MX3exhibit a volume greater than those of pristine compounds. This anomalous behavior could be interpreted as a pressure-induced self-insertion reaction. Furthermore, the high-temperature and high-pressure phase diagram of RhSb3was obtained. The structural instability ofMX3under high pressures is discussed.
