Equilibrium p-T Phase Diagram of Boron: Experimental Study and Thermodynamic Analysis

Résumé

Solid-state phase transformations and melting of high-purity crystalline boron have been in situ and ex situ studied at pressures to 20 GPa in the 1500-2500 K temperature range where diffusion processes become fast and lead to formation of thermodynamically stable phases. The equilibriumphase diagram of boron has been constructed based on thermodynamic analysis of experimental and literature data. The high-temperature part of the diagram contains p-T domains of thermodynamic stability of rhombohedral b-B106, orthorhombic c-B28, pseudo-cubic (tetragonal) t'-B52, and liquid boron (L). The positions of two triple points have been experimentally estimated, i.e. b-t'-L at , 8.0 GPa and , 2490 K; and b-c-t' at , 9.6 GPa and , 2230 K. Finally, the proposed phase diagram explains all thermodynamic aspects of boron allotropy and significantly improves our understanding of the fifth element.
