Materials properties can be altered by the application of pressure. For example a normal insulating material may become a metal or even superconductor under compression. High pressure also affect our daily life as manifest in changes in geo-dynamics at the outer and inner core of the Earth. We propose to assemble an instrument specifically designed to study the electron spin property of materials under extreme pressure. This instrument will be used to study new molecular magnets, superconductors and the behaviour of minerals and their chemistry under extreme pressure. This instrument will be unique for research in high pressure science.

材料的性质可以通过施加压力来改变。例如，正常的绝缘材料在压缩的情况下可能会变成金属甚至超导体。高压也影响着我们的日常生活，表现在地球外核和内核的地球动力学变化上。我们建议组装一台专门设计的仪器，用于研究材料在极端压力下的电子自旋性质。这台仪器将被用来研究新的分子磁体、超导体以及矿物及其在极端压力下的化学行为。该仪器在高压科学研究中将是独一无二的。
