A study of the high-pressure polymorphs of L-serine using Ab initio structures and PIXEL calculations

Polymorphs of L-serine have been studied using ab initio density functional theory for pressures up to8.1 GPa. The SIESTA code was used to perform geometry optimisations starting from the coordinatesderived from high-pressure neutron powder diffraction. Between 0 and 8.1 GPa two phase transitionsocc...
