The high-pressure, high-temperature behavior of transition metal dioxides TiO₂, ZrO₂, and HfO₂ has been reviewed. In particular, early predictions and measurements that suggested superhard behavior for the transition metal dioxides have been considered. In subsequent studies, it has been concluded t...
