Resistivity measurements of novel metal hydrides at high pressure

我的研究项目将包括测量新型合成金属氢化物的临界温度，这些氢化物被预测为高温超导体和其他有趣的材料，具有有趣的导电性能。该项目的第一个组成部分包括定制一个能够测量样品电阻率的钻石压腔，进行X射线衍射实验以确定新材料的空间群和结构，并使用拉曼光谱测量新材料的不同性质。

My research project will in involve measuring the critical temperature of novel synthesized metallic hydrides which are predicted to be high temperature superconductors and other interesting materials which exhibit interesting conductive properties. the first component of the project involves custom building a Diamond Anvil Cell which is capable of measuring resistivity of a sample, performing X-ray Diffraction experiments in order to determine the novel materials space group and structure and Raman spectroscopy to measure different properties of the new material.
