Key Points

To examine high-pressure structural phase transitions and associated electrical properties in indium telluride.
Constructed a pressure-temperature phase diagram for indium telluride across conditions up to 850 °C and 50 kb.
Characterized the crystal structure and low-temperature conductivity transitions of high-pressure synthesized InTe(II).
Determined that metallic InTe(II) adopts a rock-salt (NaCl-type) crystal structure with a lattice constant of ao = 6.154 Å.
Demonstrated that InTe(II) transitions to a superconducting state at temperatures below 3.5 K, differing substantially from earlier reported values.

Implication

Experimental study reveals a metallic rock-salt phase and superconductivity below 3.5 K in indium telluride, outlining an expanded pressure-temperature phase diagram.
