ABSTRACT The Paris-Edinburgh press is a widely available, highly adaptable pressure cell commonly used while collecting neutron scattering data. Here, we detail the use of the VX3 and VX5 Paris-Edinburgh presses on the Wide-Angle Neutron Diffractometer (WAND ) at the High Flux Isotope Reactor at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. We first give a detailed overview of the instrument setup and alignment capabilities used at WAND . We then demonstrate the high pressure capabilities through three examples. The first example focuses on diffraction data obtained from a lithium-diamond mixture to 10 GPa with the use of single toroidal cubic boron nitride anvils. Other examples include the room temperature compressions of germanium (up to 16 GPa) and the mineral malachite with double toroidal sintered diamond anvils. This work thereby represents the first studies above 10 GPa at the High Flux Isotope Reactor and opens the door for future user experiments at these elevated pressures.

ABSTRACT High temperature is of paramount importance in high pressure science. One of the leading tools in this respect is the resistively heated diamond anvil cell (DAC), where the heat is provided by small heaters, positioned close to the diamond/gasket/sample region (internally heated DAC, IHDAC) or by wrapping the DAC body into bigger heaters (externally heated DAC, EHDAC). Although IHDACs can reach sample temperatures higher than 1000 K, they are difficult to handle and the heater/diamond/gasket/sample region may be affected by strong thermal gradients potentially hindering accurate temperature measurements. Here we present a novel EHDAC, which overcomes these issues by uniquely joining: (i) high mechanical precision for multi-Mbar, (ii) high temperature alloys for operating to 1000 K, (iii) membrane or screw driven, easily switchable between each other, (iv) operation into a vacuum chamber, (v) uniform temperature, (vi) facile handling, and (vii) possibility to add internal heaters for achieving even higher temperatures.

ABSTRACT At the 26th AIRAPT conference in 2017, a task group was formed to work on an International Practical Pressure Scale (IPPS). This report summarizes the activities of the task group toward an IPPS ruby gauge. We have selected three different approaches to establishing the relation between pressure (P) and ruby R1-line shift (Δλ) with three groups of optimal reference materials for applying these approaches. Using a polynomial form of the second order, the recommended ruby gauge (referred as Ruby2020) is expressed by: , where λ0 is the wavelength of the R1-line near 694.25 nm at ambient condition. In June of 2020, the Executive Committee of AIRAPT endorsed the proposed Ruby2020. We encourage high-pressure practitioners to utilize Ruby2020 within its applicable pressure range (up to 150 GPa), so that pressure data can be directly compared across laboratories and amended consistently as better scales emerge in the future.

ABSTRACT The compressibility and effect of pressure on the vibrations of merrillite, Ca9NaMg(PO4)7, were studied by using diamond anvil cell at room temperature combined with in-situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy up to about 18 and 15 GPa, respectively. The pressure-volume data was fitted by a third-order Birch–Murnaghan equation of state to determine the isothermal bulk modulus as K0 = 87.2(32) GPa with pressure derivative K0′ = 3.2(4). If K0′ = 4, the isothermal bulk modulus was obtained as 81.6(10) GPa. The axial compressibility was estimated and an axial elastic anisotropy exists since a-axis is less compressible than the c-axis. The Raman frequencies of all observed modes for merrillite continuously increase with pressure, and the pressure dependences of stretching modes (v 3 and v 1) are larger than those of the bending modes (v 4 and v 2) and external modes. The isothermal mode Grüneisen parameters and intrinsic anharmonicity of merrillite were also calculated.

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.

ABSTRACT The phase transitions and equation of state measurements were carried out on rare earth metal Holmium (Ho) to 282 GPa using toroidal diamond anvils thereby doubling the pressure range to which it has been studied previously. The first set of experiment employed standard beveled diamond anvils utilizing copper as an x-ray pressure standard to 217 GPa. The second set of experiment employed toroidal diamond anvils utilizing platinum as an x-ray pressure standard to 282 GPa. The recently proposed 16-atom orthorhombic structure (oF16) appeared to be stable between 103 and 282 GPa. The scaled axial ratio (c/a) shows a narrow range of variation of 1.58 ± 0.05 for the five known crystalline phases of Ho to 282 GPa. The experimental equation of state of Ho is presented up to a threefold volume compression V/Vo = 0.322.

ABSTRACT To understand the practical effects of pressure-transmitting media (PTM) on neutron diffraction using Paris–Edinburgh presses, diffraction patterns of MgO were collected to approximately 20 GPa using PTMs of Pb, AgCl, 4:1 methanol–ethanol (ME) mixture with and without heating, N2, and Ar. Hydrostaticity in the sample chamber estimated from the MgO 220 peak width improves in the order of Pb, AgCl, Ar, ME mixture, N2, and the heated ME mixture. Unlike previous results using diamond anvil cells, the unheated ME mixture is superior to Ar even after freezing, probably due to the cup on the anvil face. Considering these results and the sizable coherent scattering of Ne, which would show good hydrostaticity, we conclude that the ME mixture (preferably the heated one) is the best PTM in neutron experiments up to 20 GPa, while Ar can be substituted when a sample is reactive to alcohols.

ABSTRACT High pressure processing (HPP) and sous vide may increase the shelf-life of high value seafood products without the use of additives. This study investigated the effects of 150MPa or 350MPa for 10min on microbial, sensory, and physicochemical qualities of raw and subsequently sous vide cooked (65°C) lobster tails during 28 days of refrigerated storage. Raw lobster pressurized at 350MPa or sous vide cooked maintained significantly lower microbial counts, total volatile base nitrogen, and biogenic amine levels. Due to off-odors, 90% and 60% of sensory respondents rejected the control and 150MPa raw samples, respectively, by day 7, while 70% rated the 350MPa samples as still acceptable on day 28. For cooked lobster, only 20% of the respondents rejected any samples by day 28. Moderate HPP conditions were effective in extending refrigerated shelf-life of vacuum-packaged raw lobster tails. However, HPP pretreatment did not contribute to additional shelf-life extension for sous vide cooked products.

ABSTRACT A new method for stirring under high pressure conditions has been developed and tested. The key component is a Teflon cell assembly equipped with magnetic stirring function, which is capable to operate across a wide pressure range, up to at least 2 GPa, in a large volume press. The setup enables adjustable stirrer rotation rate and detection of stirring in a sample, e.g. to observe liquid–solid phase transitions at high pressure. The viscosity limit of stirring is ca. 500 times that of water at room temperature (i.e. ∼500 mPas). Moreover, we show that zinc oxide nanoparticles hydrothermally synthesized at 0.5 GPa and 100°C under stirring conditions show an order of magnitude smaller size (100 nm) compared to those synthesized under non-stirring conditions (1 μm). The wide pressure range for stirring of viscous media opens interesting possibilities to produce novel materials via hydrothermal synthesis and chemical reactions.

ABSTRACT The quasi-hydrostatic compression of cesium chloride and cesium bromide has been measured with X-ray diffraction up to 141 GPa at 300 K. A cubic to orthorhombic transition, with a ≥10% distortion of lattice parameters, is evidenced in CsBr around 60 GPa. A smaller distortion (∼1.5%) appears in CsCl at the same pressure, followed by a likely transition to a lower symmetry phase which starts at 134 GPa. P−V compression curves yield equation of state parameters in line with those of other B2 alkali halides.
