Structure ofB2O3Glass at High Pressure: AB11Solid-State NMR Stud

Abstract: We report spectroscopic evidence for the pressure-induced structural changes in B2O3 glass quenched from melts at pressures up to 6 GPa using solid-state NMR. While all borons are tri-coordinated at 1 atm, the fraction of tetra-coordinated boron increases with pressure, being about 5% and 27% in the B2O3 glass quenched from melts at 2 and 6 GPa, respectively. The fraction of boroxol ring species increases with pressure up to 2 GPa and apparently decreases with further compression up to 6 GPa. Two densification… Show more

“…Finally, for the sample with x=20 mol% most of the boron atoms, 85% are 3-fold coordinated. These results are in agreement with NMR investigations, as well [20,32] correlation function centred at 1.30 Å also increases. Consequently, the first neighbour distance at 1.30 Å can mainly be attributed to the 3-fold oxygen coordinated boron atoms, however, the 4-fold oxygen coordinated boron atoms also contribute to the formation of this gB-O(r) first sub-peak as well, in fairly good agreement with the result obtained from model calculations for a similar composition 55.3SiO2-14.71B2O3-29.99Na2O (dB-O=1.44 Å) in ref.…”

“…Two characteristic contributions have been detected: peak positioned around 0 ppm and a broader quadrupolar line between 5 and 20 ppm. Based on the literature ( [20] and [21]) we assigned these two contributions to [4] B(BO4) and [3] B(BO3) structural units, as indicated in Figure 1. The peak intensities clearly show concentration dependence.…”

“…The simple predictive NBO fraction in the melt, if available, could be useful to yield the microscopic origins of melt properties. The advent of high-resolution, element-specific, multinuclear NMR techniques such as triple quantum magic angle spinning (3QMAS) NMR allows us to obtain previously unknown details of the pressure-induced structural changes in multicomponent melts at high pressure (23,(27)(28)(29). Quaternary Ca-Na aluminosilicate (CNAS) melts is a model system for slab-driven magmatic melts and midocean ridge basalts (MORBs) composition melts in the Earth's interior (30,31) and provides insights into the structure of complex primordial melts and magmatic reservoirs.…”

“…Future studies in sesquioxides and sesquisulfides will bring undoubtedly new exciting results on the high-pressure behavior of A 2 X 3 corundum-type compounds. In fact, the pressure behavior of B 2 O 3 is highly complex and there are a number of unsolved questions in condensed matter physics in spite of its fundamental importance to the dynamics of magmatic melts in the Earth's interior [227].…”
