This work investigates the high-pressure structure of freestanding
superconducting ($T_{c}$ = 4.3\,K) boron doped diamond (BDD) and how it affects
the electronic and vibrational properties using Raman spectroscopy and x-ray
diffraction in the 0-30\,GPa range. High-pressure Raman scattering experiments
revealed an abrupt change in the linear pressure coefficients and the grain
boundary components undergo an irreversible phase change at 14\,GPa. We show
that the blue shift in the pressure-dependent vibrational modes correlates with
the negative pressure coefficient of $T_{c}$ in BDD. The analysis of x-ray
diffraction data determines the equation of state of the BDD film, revealing a
high bulk modulus of $B_{0}$=510$\pm$28\,GPa. The comparative analysis of
high-pressure data clarified that the sp$^{2}$ carbons in the grain boundaries
transform into hexagonal diamond.Comment: 7 pages, 4 figure
