Methane hydrate (MH) and argon hydrate (AH) single crystals were synthesized in a diamond anvil cell to investigate their intrinsic high-pressure properties by visual observation and in situ Raman and Brillouin-scattering measurements. Single crystalline MH shows clearly two phase transitions at P =0.9 and 1.9 GPa in its crystalline shape and state under a microscope, and in the change in its Raman spectra of C-H stretching vibrations of guest CH4 molecules. The first determination of the elastic properties in MH sI phase has revealed that MH is about 10% softer than the most common ice Ih, which is accounted for by MH's void-rich and open structures. For a single-crystal AH, we have observed two phase transitions from AH-I (sII) to AH-II at about P =0.65 GPa and from AH-II to AH-III at P =1.02 GPa. The breakdown of the cage structure in AH-III was confirmed by the disappearance of the O-H stretching mode of host H2O lattices. The possibility of Ar double occupancy in the large cages of sII and higher pressure phases is investigated by the low-frequency Raman peak observed around 120 similar to 140 cm(-1) in view of recent MD calculations.
