Abstract
A new type of hydrostatic pressure cell is discussed. It is suitable for precise electrical and magnetic measurements on several samples simultaneously over a wide range of temperature and pressure. Pressures as high as 90 kilobars have thus far been reached in a four‐point electrical resistivity measurement. These studies indicate minimal pressure changes upon cooling from 300 to 1 K, good pressure homogeneity, and absence of significant shear stresses.Keywords
