Micron-sized diamond anvils with a 3 μm culet were successfully processed using a focused ion beam (FIB) system and the generation of high pressures was confirmed using the double stage diamond anvil cell technique. The difficulty of aligning two second-stage micro-anvils was solved via the paired micro-anvil method. Micro-manufacturing using a FIB system enables us to control anvil shape, process any materials, including nano-polycrystalline diamond and single crystal diamond, and assemble the sample exactly in a very small space between the second-stage anvils. This method is highly reproducible. High pressures over 300 GPa were achieved, and the pressure distribution around the micro-anvil culet was evaluated by using a well-focused synchrotron micro-X-ray beam.
使用聚焦离子束(FIB)系统成功加工出了具有3μm台面的微米级金刚石砧座,并利用双级金刚石砧座单元技术确认了高压的产生。通过配对微砧座方法解决了两个二级微砧座对准的难题。使用FIB系统进行微制造使我们能够控制砧座形状、加工任何材料,包括纳米多晶金刚石和单晶金刚石,并将样品精确组装在二级砧座之间的非常小的空间内。该方法具有高度的可重复性。实现了超过300 GPa的高压,并使用聚焦良好的同步加速器微X射线束评估了微砧座台面周围的压力分布。
