Abstract

Melting curve of Platinum (Pt) has been measured up to 35 GPa using our laboratory based laser heated diamond anvil cell (LHDAC) facility. Laser speckle method has been employed to detect onset of melting. High pressure melting curve of Pt obtained in the present study has been compared with previously reported experimental and theoretical results. The melting curve measured agrees well within experimental error with the results of Kavner et al. The experimental data fitted with simon equation gives (?Tm/?P) ∼25 K/GPa at P∼1 MPa.
