Over 100 institutions have
installed Rockland Research high pressure equipment.
These are just a few:
Rockland's Walker multi-anvil
module and 1000 ton press in the Walker laboratory at the
Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory
of
Columbia University.
Dr.
David Walker,
inventor of this new tool for research work in
geology, physics, chemistry and the materials sciences.
Dr. Bob Cava's solid state chemistry laboratory
in the
Chemistry Department at
Princeton University. Here, research
in new materials is carried out using a Rockland Research Corp. cubic
multi-anvil module, 1000 ton press, and pressure and temperature
controllers.
Dr. Peter Ulmer's and
Dr. Max Schmidt's
laboratories at the
Institute for Mineralogy and Petrology at the Swiss Federal Institute
of Technology (ETH), where Rockland Research presses and a Walker
multi-anvil system are used for petrology research.
Dr. Paul Asimow's laboratory
in the
Division of Geological and Planetary Sciences at California Institute of
Technology, where Cal Tech's high pressure
capabilities for the study of mantle geology were recently extended
considerably through the addition of a complete Rockland Research high
pressure system.
Technical set-up data here.
The Texas Center for Superconductivity at
the University of Houston, where
Rockland Research presses, multi-anvil, and piston/cylinder systems are
tools for the synthesis of superconductors in the Materials Preparation
Laboratory.
The
Department of Geology, whose
high pressure laboratory at the
University of Illinois at
Champaign-Urbana employs a Rockland Research
Walker multi-anvil system and 600 ton press for superconductor synthesis.
Dr. Timothy
Grove uses Rockland Research piston-cylinder
and Walker multi-anvil systems for studies of the earth's interior in the
Petrology Laboratory at
the Massachusetts
Institute of Technology.
The
Superconductivity Center (POSTECH) at Pohang University
(Korea) , where Rockland Research cubic and Walker multi-anvil systems and
a 1000 ton press are used for superconductor synthesis.
Dr. Bryan Eichhorn with
the Walker multi-anvil module inserted in the 600 ton press employed for
his research on transition metal sulfides and other materials in the
Chemistry
Department at the
University of Maryland.
University of Minnesota has installed a 1000
ton Multi-Anvil Press in their
Experimental Petrology Lab
at the
Department of Geology and Geophysics
under the direction of
Dr.
Marc M. Hirschmann
Arizona State University has been using
Rockland Research/Fansteel's new grade of carbide
The University of Chicago Argonne National
Laboratory Advanced Photon Source makes use of a
Rockland Research 1000 metric ton press
as well as a
high pressure / large volume press
