High-pressure powder X-ray diffraction at the turn of the century

Piezo‐ and Photo‐Crystallography Applied to Spin‐Crossover Materials

“…7 Towards this aim, high-pressure powder X-ray diffraction may be used, taking advantage of all the recent developments. 73 The second point concerns a multitude of unexplored routes in the field of SCO. It includes the effects of "small" pressures, <1000 bar, which are not covered by DACs but are probably of key importance for applications; negative pressures also deserve to be explored.…”

Crystallography Under Extreme Conditions: State of the Art and Perspectives

“…This field of research is also one of the most well-informed facing the number of published papers and reviews concerning experimental results or technical information (see for examples Paszkowicz, 2002;Boldyreva, 2008;Katrusiak, 2008;and references therein). Material studies under pressure are nowadays numerous due to the increase capabilities of modern X-ray diffractometer and the making of dedicated instruments on synchrotrons and neutron facilities.…”

High pressure neutron and X-ray diffraction at low temperatures

“…There are several existing papers reviewing high pressure techniques for cryogenic experiments [9][10][11], and techniques for high pressure crystallographic studies [12][13][14][15][16][17][18], though these typically lean towards either neutrons or X-rays as a source, or focus on extremely high temperatures. Likewise, there are papers elsewhere which discuss a more complete history of high pressure crystallography, such as a review of the development of diamond anvil cells (DACs) by Bassett [19], and those which discuss recent developments in techniques to reach ever higher pressures [20].…”
