One envisaged class of experiments at the "extreme conditions" station at PETRA-III are synthesis experiments at very high pressures and temperatures. I will summarize recent work on the synthesis of carbides and nitrides in laser heated diamond anvil cells and discuss future prospects in this research area.

Mineral Physics is a dynamical field of research, but in many aspects our progression is limited by technology. Any improvement in experimental techniques, to which we participate actively, results in opening new windows to the Earth interior. We employ a great diversity of difficult experimental techniques; the 50µm diameter samples loaded between two beveled diamond anvils, advanced optical...
