Diamond Anvil Cells and related High Pressure accessories

Diamond Anvil Cell

Diamond Anvil Cells are high-precision devices designed to generate extreme pressures—often exceeding several million atmospheres by compressing small samples between two opposing diamond anvils. These conditions simulate environments found in planetary interiors, enabling groundbreaking research in high-pressure physics, geophysics, chemistry, and materials science. QTS offers a complete ecosystem to support DAC-based experiments, including:

  • Gaskets: Custom-fabricated to confine the sample and ensure uniform pressure distribution.
  • Heating elements: For high-temperature studies under pressure.
  • Ruby chips: Used as fluorescence-based pressure calibrants.
  • EDM drilling systems: For precise gasket hole fabrication and support component machining.
  • Membrane cells: To allow fine control of pressure application.
  • Cryostat and PPMS-compatible assemblies: For integration into low-temperature and high-magnetic-field environments.
  • Optical windows and alignment stages: For in-situ Raman, infrared, and X-ray spectroscopy or diffraction studies.

Additionally, QTS provides hands-on training modules to help researchers confidently begin high-pressure experiments, ensuring safe and effective operation of DAC systems and accessories.
