Energy dispersive x-ray diffraction measurements for polycrystalline CaSi03 perovskite were carried out at in situ transition zone and lower mantle P-T conditions. The phase boundary between CaSb05+Ca2Si04 and CaSi03 was determined to be 14-16 GPa. The proposed tetragonal distortion, and hence the phase transformation from distorted phase to cubic, was not observed.
