Growth zoning and strain patterns inside diamond crystals as revealed by Raman maps
2005
The Raman mapping technique provides a non-destructive means of studying internal growth textures and other micro-structural heterogeneity inside diamond single-crystals. Raman maps showing distribution patterns of the bandwidth (FWHM) of the main first-order lattice vibration of diamond ( LO=TO phonon at ~1332 cm −1 ) along two-dimensional planes inside diamond crystals may reveal the internal growth zoning of these crystals. The observed zoning is affected, and in some cases even obscured in micro-areas adjacent to inclusions, by patterns of heterogeneous strain in the diamond. We present Raman maps obtained from diamond crystals containing large, single-crystal graphite inclusions, from …
Crystallographic analysis of extended defects in diamond-type crystals
2005
Abstract To investigate irradiation-induced Si amorphization during its initial stages, we have performed a classical molecular-dynamics (MD) calculation for the case of self-irradiation by 5 keV ions at a low temperature of 100 K. We examined the geometry of self-interstitial atom (SIA) clusters using the pixel mapping (PM) method, on the output data of MD calculations. Perfect crystalline silicon (c-Si) is amorphized by self-irradiation, and we observe that many SIA are produced. During sequential self-irradiation, the most frequently observed species were isolated SIA, i.e. I1 (monomer). The fractions of SIA clusters decreased as I2 (dimer), I3 (trimer), and I4 (tetramer) clusters, respe…
“Supramolecular” Solid-State Chemistry: Interpenetrating Diamond-Type Frameworks of U4+ Ions Linked byS,S′-Bidentate P2S62− Molecular Rods in UP4S12
2001
Inseparably interwoven are three independent polymeric diamond-type U(P2 S6 )2 frameworks in the structure of the title compound. The linear P2 S6 units act as molecular rods linking the pseudotetrahedral U4+ centers. U(P2 S6 )2 may be viewed as a coordination polymer which is formed from U/P/S melts by the solid-state equivalent of the self-assembly reactions in solution.
In situ micro-Raman and X-ray diffraction study of diamonds and petrology of the new ureilite UAE 001 from the United Arab Emirates
2008
International audience; A new olivine-pigeonite ureilite containing abundant diamonds and graphite was found in the United Arab Emirates. This is the first report of a meteorite in this country. The sample is heavily altered, of medium shock level, and has a total weight of 155 g. Bulk rock, olivine (Fo79.8-81.8) and pyroxene (En73.9-75.2, Fs15.5-16.9, Wo8.8-9.5) compositions are typical of ureilites. Olivine rims are reduced with Fo increasing up to Fo96.1-96.8. Metal in these rims is completely altered to Fehydroxide during terrestrial weathering. We studied diamond and graphite using micro-Raman and in situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction. The main diamond Raman band (LO=TO mode at ~1332 c…
