DEF

Partie constituante d'une cellule à enclumes de diamant formée de deux diamants dont les surfaces planes sont placées en vis-à-vis et permettant de reproduire expérimentalement des conditions extrêmes de température et de pression sur un micro-échantillon de minéral ou de matériau.

CONT

En utilisant les enclumes de diamant pour comprimer la matière dans de tout petits volumes (jusqu'à 100 microns cube), il est possible d'aller au-delà de la pression au centre de la terre! Le seul moyen d'extraire de l'information de ces micro-échantillons est d'utiliser une source de rayons X exceptionnellement brillante.
