What Does DAC Stand For?
DAC stands for Diamond Anvil Cell
DAC, or Diamond Anvil Cell, is a high-pressure device used in scientific research to create and study materials under extreme conditions. It consists of two opposing diamond tips that compress a small sample between them, allowing researchers to achieve pressures in excess of 1 million atmospheres. This technology is essential in fields such as materials science, geophysics, and chemistry, enabling the investigation of phase transitions, chemical reactions, and the properties of materials at unprecedented pressures and temperatures.
