Abstract

Possibile phase transitions of graphite have been examined experimentally using piston cylinder and DAC with synchrotron radiation. The graphite-forming processes in high pressure and low temperature conditions and the phase change under super high pressure were studied in the conditions of 0.7 Gpa and 270-$360^{\circ}C$ in piston cylinder and under 39.6 Gpa in DAC. In the piston cylinder experiment using LiCO3as a catalyzer, we could synthesize disordered graphites whose TGD values change progressively form 9 to 53. It was known that the temperature of graphitization in 0.7 Gpa is between 270-$300^{\circ}C$. Numerous unknown XRD peaks were observed in the super high-pressure experiment. However, it is difficult to pick up a new peak of a hexagonal diamond phase. Application of the different high pressure apparatus as well as a peculiar X-ray source and various graphite specimen would be useful for super high-pressure experiment, and more detailed works are needed to characterize the unknown phase(s) observed in this study.

피스톤 실린더와 DAC 및 방사광을 이용하여 비정질의 탄질물에서 흑연으로, 흑연에서 다이아몬드로의 상변이의 가능성이 연구되었다. 속성작용이나 낮은 변성도의 흑연생성과정을 피스톤 실린더를 사용하여 0.7 Gpa와 250-$360^{\circ}C$의 환경하에서 실시되었으며 초고압 실험은 Mao-Bell형의 DAC와 EDXRD 및 방사광 가속기를사용하여 상온에서 최고압력 39.6Gpa까지 실시되었다. $Li_2CO_3$를 촉매로 사용한 피스톤 실린더 실험에서는 온도변화에 따라 TGD가 9에서 53으로 누진적으로 변화하는 무질서흑연을 얻었으며 이로부터 0.7Gpa에서 흑연화 온도는 $270^{\circ}C$$300^{\circ}C$사이임을 알수 있다. 흑연의 초고압 실험에서는 여러개의 새로운 XRD피크가 관찰되며 이들중에는 육방 다이아몬드의 것으로 보이는 것들로 있으리라 사료되나 이를 단정하기에는 보다 구체적인 실험연구가 필요하다. 또한 다른 종류의 고압 실험기기나 특수한 X선을 이용하여 여러 종료의 흑연시료를 대상으로한 연구가 요구된다.
