Popis: The high-pressure growth technique generally plays an important role in the improvement of sample quality and the enhancement of various physical and magnetic properties of materials. The high gas pressure technique provides a large sample space (10–15 cm) to grow various kinds of materials. In this paper, we introduce the high gas pressure and high-temperature synthesis (HP-HTS) technique that is present at our institute and is applied to the growth process of different kinds of superconducting materials, particularly iron-based superconductors. More details and the working principle of this HP-HTS technique are discussed. We have also demonstrated the current results based on iron-based superconductors by using this unique HP-HTS technique. These results demonstrate the enhancement of the superconducting properties with improved sample quality compared to the conventional synthesis process at ambient pressure.
