abstract = {K-Cl is a simple system displaying all four main types of
bonding, as it contains (i) metallic potassium, (ii)
elemental chlorine made of covalently bonded Cl2 molecules
held together by van der Waals forces, and (iii) an
archetypal ionic compound KCl. The charge balance rule,
assigning classical charges of “+1” to K and “−1”
to Cl, predicts that no compounds other than KCl are
possible. However, our quantum-mechanical
variable-composition evolutionary simulations predict an
extremely complex phase diagram, with new thermodynamically
stable compounds K3Cl, K2Cl, K3Cl2, K4Cl3, K5Cl4, K3Cl5,
KCl3 and KCl7. Of particular interest are 2D-metallic
homologs Kn+1Cln, the presence of positively charged Cl
atoms in KCl7, and the predicted stability of KCl3 already
at nearly ambient pressures at zero Kelvin. We have
synthesized cubic -KCl3 at 40–70 GPa and trigonal -KCl3 at
20–40 GPa in a laser-heated diamond anvil cell (DAC) at
temperature exceeding 2000 K from KCl and Cl2. These phases
were identified using in situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction
and Raman spectroscopy. Upon unloading to 10 GPa, -KCl3
transforms to a yet unknown structure before final
decomposition to KCl and Cl2 at near-ambient conditions.},
