Abstract: | Progress in high-pressure and neutron scattering methods has recently allowed measurements of phonon dispersion curves of
simple solids at high pressures to 10 GPa. In this technique single crystals of 10–25 mm3 volume are compressed by the Paris-Edinburgh cell and the phonon frequencies are measured on high-flux triple axis spectrometers.
Detailed studies of the lattice dynamics of low-compressible systems are feasible, including measurements of mode Grüneisen
parameters, elastic constants, and precursor effects of phase transitions. We describe the experimental set-up and illustrate
its potential by results on semiconductors (Ge and GaSb) and metals (Fe and Zn) obtained at the LLB (Saclay) and ILL (Grenoble)
reactor sources.
