Pressure buffering in a diamond anvil cell

The clinopyroxenes kanoite and spodumene were studied by single-crystal X-ray diffraction in a diamond anvil cell (DAC) at room temperature. At the displacive phase transitions between the C2/c and P21/c polymorphs both phases coexist within the same crystal. In this two-phase region the pressure in the DAC remains constant. The experimental results demonstrate that pressure buffering at first-order phase transitions can occur in the DAC.

KEYWORDS: Pressure buffering, diamond anvil cell, phase transition, single-crystal X-ray diffraction, clinopyroxene, kanoite, spodumene
