Diacell® LeverDAC-Maxi

FTIR/Raman Spectroscopy, Mössbauer, Pmax = 50 GPa, Tmax = 800 K , WD = 10 mm, A = 52°

Diacell® LeverDAC Series

DAC based on a leverage mechanism designed to bring the diamond anvils together. This is the original design of diamond anvil cells
Specially suited for large area of high pressure optical spectroscopy. It has a numerical aperture of 0.44
Diamond anvils are mechanically force fitted into rings, a unique feature of Diacell® Diamond Anvil Cells to avoid repetitive epoxing
Optional internal resistive heater enables the operation of the LeverDAC-Maxi to temperatures of order of 800 K
The lever arm drive unit can be disconnected from the cell to facilitate interfacing to spectrometers
Maximum pressures of up to above 50 GPa may be obtained with the Diacell® LeverDAC-Maxi.

Description

The majority of high pressure research is currently conducted at pressures below 50 GPa. Diacell® LeverDAC-Maxi design has consequently been optimised for use below 50 GPa, and with the addition of an internal ring heater is capable of raising the sample temperature up to 800 K, thereby making accessible an enormous area of P-T space for investigation.

Applications

The Diacell® Lever DAC-Maxi is suitable for many kinds of physical investigations including electronic, infrared, far-infrared, Mössbauer, and Raman spectroscopy, as well as electrical measurements and energy-dispersive X-ray diffraction.

FAQs

What is the maximum pressure I can achieve with the LeverDAC-Maxi and a given culet size?

Culet size (µm)	200	300	400	500	600	800	1000
Pmax (GPa) (*)	114	98	63	41	28	16	10

(*) The Pmax values are only indicative. The maximum pressure achievable with a DAC is influenced by many others experimental parameters, like the gasket characteristics (material, thickness and hole size) or the pressure transmitting medium.
