Abstract
In this work, an in situ characterization of the high-pressure and high-temperature phase diagram of ruthenium was carried out. This experiment was performed using a combination of laser-heated diamond anvil cell (LH-DAC) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) techniques at the beamline ID27 of the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF). XRD patterns were collected in the range of 15 GPa to 110 GPa and from ambient temperature up to 6600 K. While the hcp-fcc transition, predicted to occur at elevated temperatures was not observed, this study has produced the first experimental observation of a solid–liquid phase transition of Ru at HP conditions. A P-V-T equation of state valid up to 100 GPa and 3000 K is reported.
