Progress in Cubic-Anvil High Pressure Techniques for Low Temperature Solid State Physics Research

Abstract

A high-pressure apparatus with cubic-anvil device has been successfully working for more than 15 years at low temperatures down to 2 K under quasi-hydrostatic pressure up to 10 GPa in study of solid-state physics. In this paper we describe the development of our cryogenic techniques applied in making a cryostat for the cubic-anvil type high-pressure apparatus.
