Effects of pressure on the physical properties are very important for understanding highly correlated electron systems, in which pressure-induced attractive phenomena such as superconductivity and magnetically ordered non-Fermi liquid have been observed. Up to now, many scientists have developed a lot of high pressure apparatus for each purpose. In this paper, we present the very small “palm cubic-anvil high-pressure apparatus” for precise electric transport measurements under high pressure up to 8 GPa. The most outstanding characteristic of this pressure cell is its compactness. This cell enables us to measure absolute values of electrical resistivity, magneto-resistance and Hall coefficient at various temperatures. The details of our palm cubic high-pressure apparatus are introduced, and some neutron experimental results at room temperature are discussed.
