Brillouin scattering at high pressures

Description

Technical advances which have made Brillouin scattering a useful tool in high pressure diamond anvil cell (DAC) studies, viz. multipassing and tandem operation of Fabry-Perot interferometers, are reviewed. Experimental aspects, such as allowed scattering geometries, are outlined and the data analysis required to transform Brillouin spectra into sound velocities and elastic constants is presented. Experimental results on H2, N2, Ar, and He are presented, and the close relationship between the Brillouin scattering results and equations of state is highlighted
