Abstract: | ABSTRACTRecently, nano-polycrystalline diamond (NPD) anvils have been widely applied in high pressure research using X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS). The nanometer-sized polycrystallization in NPD anvils enables us to obtain glitch-free X-ray absorption spectra. This advantage of NPD anvils drastically improves the experimental conditions of XAS, which has previously used conventional single-crystal diamond (SCD) anvils. Distorted spectra due to the glitches from the SCD anvils have been an inevitable problem of XAS. This paper reviews recent studies of XAS and related spectroscopic techniques using the NPD anvils, which have mainly been performed on BL39XU of SPring-8. We demonstrate how NPD anvils are useful when using XAS for high pressure research. |
