Resistivity measurements of novel metal hydrides at high pressure

我的研究项目将涉及测量新型合成金属超导体的临界温度，这些材料被预测为高温超导体和其他具有有趣导电性能的有趣材料。该项目的第一个组成部分是定制一个金刚石砧室，它能够测量样品的电阻率，进行X射线衍射实验，以确定新材料的空间群和结构，以及拉曼光谱学来测量新材料的不同特性。

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.
