The physical properties of most 2D materials are highly dependent on the nature of their interlayer interaction. In-depth studies of the interlayer interaction are beneficial to the understanding of the physical properties of 2D materials and permit the development of related devices. Layered magnetic NiPS3has unique magnetic and electronic properties. The electronic band structure and corresponding magnetic state of NiPS3are expected to be sensitive to the interlayer interaction, which can be tuned by external pressure. Here, we report an insulator-metal transition accompanied by the collapse of magnetic order during the 2D-3D structural crossover induced by hydrostatic pressure. A two-stage phase transition from a monoclinic (C2/m) to a trigonallattice is identified viaab initiosimulations and confirmed via high-pressure X-ray diffraction and Raman scattering; this transition corresponds to a layer-by-layer slip mechanism along thea-axis. Temperature-dependent resistance measurements and room temperature infrared spectroscopy under different pressures demonstrate that the insulator-metal transition and the collapse of the magnetic order occur at ∼20 GPa, which is confirmed by low-temperature Raman scattering measurements and theoretical calculations. These results establish a strong correlation between the structural change, electric transport, and magnetic phase transition and expand our understanding of layered magnetic materials. Moreover, the structural transition caused by the interlayer displacement has significance for designing similar devices at ambient pressure.
