Grant: Research Tools and Instruments - Category 1 (<$150,000)
University of Ottawa
$133,720.00
Laser heating and radiometric temperature measurement system
FY 2008-09
Summary
We are requesting NSERC funds to build a laser heating and high temperature measurement system at Laboratoire de physique des solides denses of the University of Ottawa. The system is imperative to achieve simultaneous high pressure and high temperature on materials constrained in diamond anvil cells. The system will allow reaching extreme conditions with pressures and temperatures in excess of 150 GPa and 3000 K for the study of melting of high-density solids, physical and chemical modifications of condensed phases, samples annealing, and materials preparation and processing.
