Stable External Heating of Diamond Anvil Cell: Examples and Issues
ORAL
Abstract
While laser heating has been applied to successfully study materials at extreme conditions, external heating also has been extensively developed and applied for material studies at moderate temperature below $\sim$1000 K at high pressures. We have tested various external heating methods to accomplish stable heating at high pressures. Experimental measurements using two mini coil heaters at 900 K and 580 K to 100 GPa and 185 GPa, respectively and isobaric heating at 95 GPa up to 1000 K will be presented. New measurements using a graphite gasket heater will be compared along with internal heating methods. We will present comparison among different external heating methods and different temperature measurements using various examples.
