Phase Transition of α-FePO4 under High Pressure: A Raman Spectroscopy Study
-
摘要: 鉴于α-FePO4和α-石英的拓扑同构性,采用金刚石压腔结合拉曼光谱技术,从分子尺度上原位厘定了α-FePO4在常温高压下的相变行为。在0.2~27.3 GPa压力范围内,揭示了其3个阶段的结构演化特征。在2.8~3.6 GPa区间,α-FePO4开始发生相变,并于4.6 GPa时完全转变为FePO4-Ⅱ。在宽泛的4.6~27.3 GPa区间,FePO4-Ⅱ的结构稳定/亚稳定性依赖于柔性[FeO6]八面体与刚性[PO4]四面体的协同形变。在该压力区间,结构无序度增加,振动频率漂移速率减缓,表明结构进入非线性压缩阶段。值得注意的是,在9.8~11.1 GPa临界窗口,P―O键的平均键长和部分振动峰半高宽出现不连续变化,暗示[FeO6]-[PO4]网络中存在压力诱导的非均匀应变,推测FePO4-Ⅱ开始进入亚稳定域。直到卸压至4.6 GPa,FePO4-Ⅱ的部分结构才恢复有序性,并在常压下保持亚稳态,表现出独特的结构记忆功能。研究结果系统地限定了α-FePO4的相变压力边界,阐明了正磷酸盐高压结构稳定性的内在调控机制,并预测了其未来结构演化趋势,为解析类石英矿物的高压动态响应提供了重要参考。Abstract: Given the topological isomorphism between α-FePO4 and α-quartz, this study employed a diamond anvil cell coupled with Raman spectroscopy to examine the phase transition of α-FePO4. The structural evolution across a pressure range of 0.2−27.3 GPa was delineated into three stages. At 2.8−3.6 GPa, α-FePO4 initiates a phase transition, achieving a complete transformation to FePO4-Ⅱ at 4.6 GPa. Between 4.6−27.3 GPa, the (meta) stability of FePO4-Ⅱ is predicated on the cooperative deformation of the adaptable [FeO6] octahedra and the rigid [PO4] tetrahedra. The progressive increase in structural disorder and the slowing of vibrational frequency shifts signify a transition to a non-linear compression regime. Notably, in the 9.8−11.1 GPa threshold, discontinuous variations in P―O bond lengths and mode widths serve as evidences of pressure-induced heterogeneous strain within the [FeO6]-[PO4] network, suggesting entry into a metastable region. Upon decompression to 4.6 GPa, FePO4-Ⅱ exhibits partial recovery of structural order, maintaining metastability at ambient conditions, which underscores its unique pressure memory characteristics. This study demarcates the stability boundary of α-FePO4, elucidates the fundamental mechanisms underpinning stability in orthophosphates, and forecasts structural evolution pathways. The findings offer insights into high-pressure dynamic response of quartz-like minerals.
