We propose to build a central CO2-laser heating facility for diamond anvil cell experiments in Frankfurt. The planned set-up would allow to heat transparent samples without addition of opaque absorbers. The projects of at least 10 groups rely on the availability of this facility. One set of experiments is aimed at studying temperature-dependent phase transformations, including melting, at high pressures. Specifically for the refractory compounds studied in the majority of projects, temperatures significantly higher than 2500 C are required. Furthermore, the laser heating facility would be employed to anneal samples to remove stress induced by the application of pressure. This is an important prerequisite to allow in situ (P only) diffraction experiments, as stress broadening will generally prevent the possibility to Rietveld-refine powder data. Several groups will require the laser-heating facility to synthesize novel compounds at extreme conditions. It is also planned that the laser heating will be used to develop new synthesis techniques such as self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS) under high pressures. In addition to these scientific tasks, the central facility will allow us to train young researchers, perform prelimenary experiments in preparation of synchrotron-based experiments, test concepts for the planned high-pressure set-up at PETRA III and improve the experimental approach, e.g. by testing new shapes for the diamonds.

我们建议在法兰克福建立一个用于金刚石砧座实验的中央CO2激光加热装置。计划的设置将允许加热透明样品，而无需添加不透明的吸收剂。至少有10个团体的项目依赖于这一设施。其中一组实验旨在研究高压下温度相关的相变，包括熔化。特别是对于大多数项目中研究的耐火化合物，需要显著高于2500 C的温度。此外，激光加热设备将用于退火样品，以消除由施加压力引起的应力。这是允许原位（仅P）衍射实验的重要先决条件，因为应力加宽通常将阻止里特费尔德精炼粉末数据的可能性。有几个研究小组将需要激光加热设备来在极端条件下合成新的化合物。还计划将激光加热用于开发新的合成技术，如高压下的自蔓延高温合成（SHS）。除了这些科学任务外，中心设施还将使我们能够培训年轻的研究人员，进行初步实验，为基于同步加速器的实验做准备，测试计划在PETRA III上建立的高压装置的概念，并改进实验方法，例如通过测试钻石的新形状。
