Zusatztext This book is a worthy addition to the literature on high-pressure techniques. Every laboratory using high pressure should buy this book to complement earlier books which have a different emphasis. Anyone who wants just one text, perhaps because high pressure might be useful, should certainly choose this one. Measurement Science and Technology Klappentext 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. Zusammenfassung The properties of materials are altered, sometimes radically, when very high pressures are applied. This monograph surveys the apparatus available for high pressure studies, with a particular emphasis on diamond anvil cells and related equipment. It also describes pressure measurement techniques.
