We are happy to announce a successful launching of our gas loading apparatus at DESY, Hamburg!
The first hydrogen loading in a DAC with 250-um anvils was safe for the diamond anvils, which stayed intact during the loading and sustained pressure of 51 GPa after the loading.
We congratulate all our team members and would like to express our special gratitude to Konstantin Glazyrin, Hanns-Peter Liermann and the staff of the P02.2 beamline for their efforts and dedication! We are grateful to Alexander Kurnosov for his efficient support.
We look forward to our exciting future experiments utilizing the great capability of this instrument.
