“…[18][19][20][21][22][23] Since electrostatic levitation is a well-established technique 16,19,[24][25][26] only the relevant or unique features of the WU-BESL are discussed here. Historically, Zr-based alloys have proven to be the easiest materials to process, but the technique has been successfully used to study a wide range of other materials.…”

High-energy x-ray diffraction studies of metallic liquids provide valuable information about structural evolution on the atomic length scale, leading to insights into the origin of the nucleation barrier and the processes of supercooling and glass formation. The containerless processing of the beamline electrostatic levitation (BESL) facility allows coordinated thermophysical and structural studies of equilibrium and supercooled liquids to be made in a contamination-free, high-vacuum (∼10(-8) Torr) environment. To date, the incorporation of electrostatic levitation facilities into synchrotron beamlines has been difficult due to the large footprint of the apparatus and the difficulties associated with its transportation and implementation. Here, we describe a modular levitation facility that is optimized for diffraction studies of high-temperature liquids at high-energy synchrotron beamlines. The modular approach used in the apparatus design allows it to be easily transported and quickly setup. Unlike most previous electrostatic levitation facilities, BESL can be operated by a single user instead of a user team.

“…Such data is very difficult to obtain because the operating temperature is in many cases above 1800 C. Because of this difficulty, only a limited amount of data has been reported for the physical properties of a few molten oxides [58,59]. Some of the differences reported in the literature might be explained by the influence of the atmosphere on the liquid properties although for some cases the reported differences are not fully understood and could be associated with the method of measurement [60,61]. In addition, the thermal properties of the various furnace components must be known since these also enter into any calculations to determine the thermal environment.…”
