Synchrotron Based High Pressure Techniques: Status and Future
Perspectives The integration of high-pressure technology with synchrotron X-ray techniques
has played a critical role in advancing high-pressure science. A wide range of physical
and chemical properties of materials, including phase transformations, phonon and
lattice dynamics, electronic and magnetic transitions, and plastic deformation, under
extreme conditions up to mega bars of pressure and from 4 to several-thousand
Kelvins of temperature can now be explored using synchrotron diffraction,
spectroscopy and imaging techniques. With the recent development of synchrotron
based high-pressure techniques and the newly established and upgrade programs
underway in synchrotron facilities around the world, we are entering a new era of
high-pressure research with experimental capabilities of increasingly enhanced spatial
and temporal resolutions in both static and dynamic high pressure domains. This
session will provide a forum for highlighting the state-of-the-art in high-pressure
synchrotron techniques, discussing the new opportunities of enabling capabilities, and
looking forward to the expanded scope of high-pressure research in future
synchrotron facilities. Yue Meng, HPCAT Carnegie Institution of Washington USA (ymeng@ciw.edu)
