Description / Table of Contents:
The properties of materials are altered, sometimes radically, when very high pressures are applied. This book surveys the apparatus available for high pressure studies with a particular emphasis on diamond anvil cells and related equipment. It also examines pressure measurement techniques at extreme values. A large part of the book considers the experimental needs and arrangement for studies involving the interaction of high pressures with high and low temperatures, magnetic fields, and shock waves. Optical properties, Brillouin and Raman scattering, infrared spectroscopy, eletron spin and nuclear magnetic resonance at high pressures are also covered. Contents: I: HIGH PRESSURE APPARATUS; 1. Hydrostatic cells; 2. Anvils; 3. Large volume anvils; 4. Diamond anvil cell; 5. Rounded cone cell; 6. Shear-deformation cells; II: PRESSURE SCALES AND THE EXPERIMENTAL ENVIRONMENT; 7. Pressure measurement; 8. Shock waves; 9. Low temperatures; 10. High temperatures; 11. Magnetic studies; III: STUDIES AT HIGH PRESSURE; 12. Optical properties; 13. Brillouin scattering; 14. Raman scattering; 15. Infrared spectroscopy; 16. Electron and nuclear resonance: ESR and NMR
