A status report and update of the instrumentation necessary to obtain spectra of molecules at high pressures are presented. The optical pressure cells used, the spectrophotometer needed to obtain the spectra, the optical link between the two, high pressure spectroscopic windows, pressure calibration methods, and future outlook of the technique will be determined. The use of the high pressure cells with the interferometric technique and for Raman spectroscopy is outlined.
