采用场发射扫描电子显微镜(FESEM)对中非共和国(CAR)天然多晶金刚石carbonado的两个纹理对比样品进行了纹理观察、晶体尺寸分布(CSD)分析、紫外激发发光成像和488 nm激光激发光致发光(PL)显微光谱分析。所研究的烘豆样品A和B显示出极其不同的纹理:样品A由多面晶体组成,伴随着丰富的小矩形孔,而样品B具有颗粒状纹理,具有较粗的晶体和稀少的大孔。小于2-3 µm的金刚石晶体在样品A中富集,但在样品B中贫化。这些织构特征表明,样品B金刚石在化学稳定的P-T条件下退火。孔隙特征表明样品A的流体渗透率高于样品B。光致发光(PL)光谱表明,样品A和B分别对应于Kagi等人(1994)分类中的A组和B组碳酸盐,因此样品A显示来自H3中心的发射,而没有任何N-V 0衍生的575 nm发射,而样品B显示来自3 H中心和N-V 0缺陷的发射。此外,样品B的UV激发的发光图像和光致发光光谱表明,在孔的几微米内的金刚石晶体的边缘显示出与AB族碳酸氢根的发光特征类似的发光特征(Kagi等人,1994),表明这种AB族材料是由B族材料通过在低温下从孔填充的、具有放射性元素的材料辐射形成的。认为低温辐照的程度取决于流体渗透性,A组材料由于其渗透性质地而受到强烈辐照,而B组材料由于其渗透性较低的颗粒状质地而未受到显著辐照。这些结果表明,B组碳酸盐岩保留了其原始的PL光谱特征下产生的高压和高温在地幔深处。
Field Emission SEM (FESEM) textural observations, crystal size distribution (CSD) analyses, UV-excited luminescence imaging, and photoluminescence (PL) microspectroscopy excited by 488 nm laser were conducted on two texturally contrasting samples of carbonado, a kind of natural polycrystalline diamond from the Central African Republic (CAR). The investigated carbonado samples A and B show extremely different textures: sample A is made up of faceted crystals accompanied by abundant, small rectangular pores, whereas sample B has a granular texture with coarser crystals and scarce, large pores. Diamond crystals smaller than 2–3 µm are enriched in sample A but depleted in sample B. These textural features indicate that sample B diamonds were annealed under thermodynamically stableP–Tconditions. The pore characteristics indicate that fluid permeability was higher for sample A than sample B. Photoluminescence (PL) spectra indicate that samples A and B correspond to Group A and B carbonados in the classification of Kagi et al. (1994), respectively, so that sample A reveals emissions from the H3 center without any N–V0derived emission at 575 nm, whereas sample B shows emissions from the 3H center and the N–V0defect. In addition, UV-excited luminescence images and photoluminescence spectra for sample B indicate that the rims of diamond crystals within several microns of a pore show luminescence features similar to those of Group AB carbonados (Kagi et al., 1994), indicating that this Group AB material was formed from Group B by irradiation from pore-filling, radioactive-element-bearing materials at a low temperature. The extent of the low-temperature irradiation is considered to depend on fluid permeability, and the Group A material was strongly irradiated due to its permeable texture whereas the Group B material was not significantly irradiated due to its less permeable granular texture. These results indicate that Group B carbonados have retained their original PL spectral features produced under high pressures and temperatures at mantle depths.
