High Pressure Experimental Methods (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780198562696)

Modern high pressure cells are compact pieces of experimental equipment used in investigating physical properties of materials under extreme conditions. This book surveys the apparatus available for high pressure studies. It examines pressure measurement techniques at extreme values and reviews experimental setups for studies involving the interaction of high pressures with low and high temperatures, magnetic fields, and shock waves. Topics covered include optical properties, infrared spectroscopy, electron spin and nuclear magnetic resonance. This comprehensive manual will be valuable to solid state chemists, geophysicists, and other experimental scientists working on properties of materials at very high pressure.
