Boron-doped diamond synthesized by chemical vapor deposition as a heating element in a multi-anvil apparatus

ABSTRACT

We tested boron-doped diamond (BDD) synthesized by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) as a heating element in a multi-anvil apparatus. We succeeded in manufacturing BDD into a tubular shape by laser cutting and electric discharging machining. The BDD tube shaped by the electric discharging machining was contaminated by discharging electrode materials (Mo and W), which affected the heating performance. The laser-cut BDD tube has a clean surface and, therefore, had a good heating performance. We succeeded in generating temperature as high as 2670?K at a pressure around 30?GPa with laser-cut heater. Heating reproducibility was confirmed through repeated heating and cooling cycles. The recovered sample shows that a higher temperature generation above 2670?K was prevented by eutectic melting of ZrO₂ thermal insulator and Al₂O₃ sample. Owing to the commercial availability with a reasonable price, CVD–BDD heaters are more practical than a high-pressure synthesized BDD heaters for wide applications.     

High-pressure Mössbauer studies of magnetism in RFe2 Laves phases and Eu-chalcogenides

A review is given on current high-pressure studies of magnetism employing the new method of nuclear forward scattering of synchrotron radiation as well as the conventional Mössbauer effect. Comparative studies of the magnetic properties of intermetallic RFe₂ Laves phases and Eu(II)-chalcogenides are described. We present as examples the pressure induced changes in YFe₂ and ScFe₂ at pressures up to 100 GPa as well as studies of EuTe in the NaCl-type and the CsCl-type high-pressure phase. Future high-pressure applications of nuclear resonant scattering will be discussed.     

High-pressure structural integrity and structural transformations of glass-derived nanocomposites: A review

A review of our recent and ongoing extensive high-pressure synchrotron X-ray diffraction and high-pressure optical spectroscopy studies of nanocrystalline composites is presented. These heterophased, nano-architectured composites consist of amorphous matrices with dispersed nanocrystals or quantum dots. We show how besides compositional variations, additional tuning of these glass-derived nanocomposites can be done by exploiting elevated pressure. We examine stability and pressure-driven phase transitions occurring in nanocrystals as well as structural changes occurring in the glass matrix. Finally, we discuss the influence of the glass matrix of a composite on the structural transformations occurring in the embedded nanocrystals.

NiO的高压结构和等温状态方程研究

 运用金刚石对顶砧（Diamond Anvil Cell,DAC）技术,以液氩作为传压介质,在最高压力为67 GPa的压力范围内对NiO进行了原位的同步辐射X射线衍射研究。在整个实验过程中,并未发现第一类结构相变,也没有发现T.Sasaki等预测的在60 GPa左右轴比c/a随压力的变化率而突然增大的现象,且此压力范围内NiO的结构畸变程度随压力的变化趋势相比以前的研究结果要平缓一些。用三阶的Brich-Murnaghan方程对实验数据进行拟合,得到的体弹模量及其对压力的一阶导数分别为B₀=195(4) GPa和B₀′=5.3(2)。     

Density functional study of the phase diagram and pressure-induced superconductivity in p: implication for spintronics

The high-pressure phase diagram of P is studied using density functional total energy, linear response lattice dynamics and model Debye-Grüneisen theories. The volume dependent electron-phonon coupling lambda approximately 0.7-0.9 is extracted for the bcc structure and found to increase with increasing volume. We propose that this phase might be realized in epitaxial thin films using templates such as V(100), Fe(100), or Cr(100) relevant to spintronics applications.     

Pressure effect on phase transition in ferroelectic polymers

Pressure effects of phase transition behaviour in two kinds of ferroelectric polymers of poly(vinylidene fluoride), PVDF, and copolymers of vinylidene fluoride and trifluoroethylene, (VDF/TrFE), are discussed. In the case of PVDF, several high-pressure treatments including a high-pressure annealing and a uniaxial compression were shown to induce a crystal transformation from a non-polar Form II crystal to a polar Form I crystal, which has ferroelectric characteristics and high piezoelectric activity. In addition, substantial pressure effects on ferroelectric phase transition points as well as crystal structures were observed for (VDF/TrFE) copolymers with different VDF contents. The most significant pressure effects were observed for copolymer samples with unstable ferroelectric structures at atmospheric pressure. From high-pressure X-ray and Raman scattering studies, these pressure effects were suggested to originate from the pressure-induced conformational transition from gauche to trans in the molecular chains.     

Phase transformations of the amorphous Zn-Sb alloy under high pressures

Abstract

Phase transformations occurring in initially amorphous Zn₄₁ Sb₅₉ semiconductor at pressures to 10 GPa and temperatures to 350C were studied using the measurement of electrical resistance, in situ energy dispersive X-ray diffraction and neutron diffraction on quenched high-pressure phases at ambient pressure. The studied T- P region involves the regions of reversible and irreversible crystallisation and phase transitions between the equilibrium crystalline low-pressure and high-pressure phases.
