Abstract
High pressure studies using Diamond Anvil Cells were carried out in an tiferromagnetic insulator transition metal iodides characterized by th eir layered structure. Magnetic properties studied by I-129 Mossbauer Spectroscopy, the equation of state obtained from X-ray diffraction an d metal insulator transition deduced from R(T,P) provided a detailed a nalysis of Mott insulators under the high pressure regime and the natu re of the pressure induced Mott transition.
