Raman and X-ray diffraction study of pressure-induced phase transition in synthetic Mg2TiO4
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Synthetic Mg 2 TiO 4 qandilite was investigated to 50 and 40.4 GPa at room temperature using Raman spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction, respectively. The Raman measurements showed that cubic Mg 2 TiO 4 spinel transforms to a high pressure tetragonal (I4 1 /amd, No.141) phase at 14.7 GPa. Owing to sluggish kinetics at room temperature, the spinel phase coexists with the tetragonal phase between 14.7 and 24.3 GPa. In the X-ray diffraction experiment, transformation of the cubic Mg 2 TiO 4 to the tetragonal structure was complete by 29.2 GPa, ~5 GPa higher than the transition pressure obtained by Raman measurements, owing to slow kinetics. The obtained isothermal bulk modulus of Mg 2 TiO 4 spinel is K T0 = 148(3) GPa when K T0 ' = 6.6, or K T0 = 166(1) GPa when K T0 ' is fixed at 4. The isothermal bulk modulus of the high-pressure tetragonal phase is calculated to be 209(2) GPa and V 0 = 270(2) Å 3 when K T0 ' is fixed at 4, and the volume reduction on change from cubic to tetragonal phase is about 9%. The calculated thermal Grüneisen parameters (γ th ) of cubic and tetragonal Mg 2 TiO 4 phases are 1.01 and 0.63. Based on the radii ratio of spinel cations, a simple model is proposed to predict post-spinel structures.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
