Title: Ultrahigh pressure equation of state of tantalum to 310 GPa

Abstract

The isothermal compression of transition metal tantalum (Ta) was studied in a diamond anvil cell by x-ray diffraction utilizing rhenium (Re) and gold (Au) as internal x-ray pressure standards. The Re pressure marker was employed during non-hydrostatic compression to pressures up to 310 GPa while the Au pressure marker was used during quasi-hydrostatic compression in a neon pressuretransmitting medium to 80 GPa. Two ultra-high pressure experiments were conducted on Ta and Re mixtures utilizing focused-ion beam machined toroidal diamond anvils with central flats varying from 8 microns to 16 microns in diameter. The Ta metal was observed to be stable in the body-centered-cubic phase to a volume compression V/V0 = 0.581. The measured equations of state (EOS) of Ta using two different calibrations of the Re pressure marker are compared with the ambient temperature isotherm derived from shock compression data. We provide a detailed analysis of EOS fit parameters for Ta under quasi-hydrostatic and non-hydrostatic conditions.
