サファイアアンビルセルを用いた高圧下中性子回折

Neutron scattering is powerful tool for studying magnetism from the microscopic point of view. In this article, experimental techniques of high-pressure neutron scattering with the sapphire anvil cell (SAC) are described. Maximum pressure generated by the SAC with 2.5 mm anvil tip and Cu gasket is about 6 GPa at present. Magnetic structures of CeSb are investigated up to 4.6 GPa with the SAC. The neutron focusing device with super mirror, which is useful for the experiments with tiny sample is also shown.
