Pressure is a variable that encompasses approximately 12 orders of magnitude (10−6 to 106 atm), and a variety of specialized equipment has been designed over the years to investigate all kinds of materials throughout most of this pressure range. The purpose of this monograph is to expose the reader to a selection of high-pressure studies that have been undertaken recently using various molecular spectroscopy techniques. There are eight chapters in all, the first three of which are focused on applications involving infrared and Raman spectroscopy. Initially, Dr. Yang Song from Western University in Ontario, Canada, describes some of his research on pressure-mediated hydrogen bonding, pressure-induced photochemical reactions, and porous materials and guest–host interactions. Then, Dr. Ian Butler, at McGill University in Quebec, Canada, describes his diamond-anvil vibrational research on solid materials, especially organometallic complexes. Next, Dr. Janice Musfeldt at the University of Tennessee in the USA presents some of her research on molecule-based multiferroics. This chapter is followed by one from Dr. Alexander Goncharov at the Carnegie Institution for Science in Washington, DC, USA, on recent experimental and theoretical investigations of simple molecules at very high pressures approaching and reaching molecular dissociation, and transformations to polymeric and monoatomic structures. In the next chapter, Dr. Helen Walker at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory in Harwell, UK, describes her research on inelastic neutron scattering under pressure. Another Canadian scientist Dr. John Tse at the University of Saskatchewan in Canada and Dr. Ercan Alp at the Argonne National Laboratory in Illinois, USA, present a report on the application of inelastic scattering of X-rays at high pressure. Moving on to Brazil, Dr. Naira Balzaretti at the Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul in Porto Alegre describes her luminescence work on lanthanide-doped glasses under high pressure. In the final chapter, Dr. Christian Reber at the University of Montreal in Quebec, Canada, introduces us to the application of variable-pressure fluorescence measurements on sixcoordinate d-block compounds. One of the rationales for this particular monograph was that the field is steadily growing. A brief survey, using SciFinder, for the two concepts high-pressure spectroscopy and high-pressure molecular spectroscopy revealed that there are over 19,000 and 1,100 citations, respectively. We trust that the reader will enjoy our collection of different high-pressure studies and consequently will be stimulated to undertake further research in this fascinating area.
