Diamond anvil cell synchrotron X-ray diffraction (XRD) experiments have been carried out on submicron-sized tungsten tetraboride (WB4) at room temperature up to 50.8 GPa with a silicone oil pressure medium. The crystal structure of WB4... more
We describe an x-ray absorption method for in situ density measurement of non-crystalline materials in the diamond anvil cell using a monochromatic synchrotron x-ray microbeam. Sample thickness, which is indispensable in the absorption... more
The reactivity induced in acetylene, benzene and phenylacetylene crystals by the application of high external pressure is discussed. Acetylene, the simplest model system involving the CC triple bond, reacts above 3.0 GPa in the... more
The pressure- and anion-dependent electronic structure of EuX (X=Te, Se, S, O) monochalcogenides is probed with element- and orbital-specific X-ray absorption spectroscopy in a diamond anvil cell. An isotropic lattice contraction enhances... more
An easily assembled setup employing diamond anvil cell, stainless steel gasket and leads, and mylar embedded Al2O3 (alumina) pressure medium for the measurement of electrical resistance of materials under pressure is described. The use of... more
