Manometer extension for high pressure measurement: nuclear quadrupole resonance study of Cu2O with a modified Bridgman anvil cell up to 10 GPa.
We report (63)Cu nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) measurement of Cu(2)O under pressure up to about 10 GPa at low temperatures. Because the lattice parameter of Cu(2)O changes with increasing pressure, the electric field gradient at the Cu site also changes correspondingly with pressure. This enables us to use the Cu(2)O as an in situ manometer for high pressure nuclear magnetic resonance/NQR up to about 9 GPa.
