A polycrystalline sample of FeSe, which adopts the tetragonal PbO-type structure (P(4)/nmm) at room temperature, has been prepared using solid state reaction. We have investigated pressure-induced structural changes in tetragonal FeSe at varying hydrostatic pressures up to 0.6 GPa in the orthorhombic (T = 50 K) and tetragonal (T = 190 K) phases using high resolution neutron powder diffraction. We report that the structure is quite compressible with a Bulk modulus approximate to 31 GPa to 33 GPa and that the pressure response is anisotropic with a larger compressibility along the c-axis. Key bond angles of the SeFe(4) pyramids and FeSe(4) tetrahedra are also determined as a function of pressure. Published by Elsevier Ltd
