Research Abstract

A system for laser heating in the diamond anvil cell has been installed at the Institute for Study of the Earth's Interior. The system provides for double-sided heating by focusing radiation from a 150 watt multi-mode CW Nd : YAG laser through both diamond anvil windows. Laser power is controlled using the optical emission from the heated sample as input for a negative feedback system, and high temperatures (2000 K) can be maintained for tens of minutes at a precision of about ±30 K.
Blackbody temperatures are measured by spectroradiometry using a spectrometer equipped with an array fomat Si-CCD.At optimal conditions, the laser heated spot is uniform over an〜40 micron diameter within ±50 K.The melting points of Fe, Pt, and Mo metals in the range of 〜1800-2900 K at 1 atmosphere have been reproduced to within 30 K.The melting point of W (3680) is reproduced within 80 K when a correction for wavelength dependent emissivity is made. The melting curve of Pt from〜3-12 GPa in the DAC has been reprodused to within about 40 K of previous work. The melting curve of Fe has been determined to 30 GPa, and is consistent within ±70 K of previous determinations made in large volume appparatus and in the laser-heated DAC.
