Outline of Research at the Start |
F subduction is facilitated by hydrous minerals and phases. In this study, O-H…F hydrogen-bonding configurations of F-doped dense hydrous magnesium silicates will be investigated under high pressure and high temperature using combined experimental methods of structural and spectroscopic analyses.
|
Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
Hydrous minerals in subducting slabs play a significant role in transporting water and halogens into the deep mantle. Studying the physicochemical properties of halogen-bearing hydrous minerals under high pressure and high temperature is an essential issue to understand the coupled water-halogen subduction. This study is aimed at systematically investigating hydrogen-bonding configurations of F-bearing mantle hydrous minerals.
The research project carried out in the last fiscal year was “Hydrogen-bonding configurations of F-doped brucite”. The crystal structure, hydrogen sublattice structure, and hydrogen-bonding geometries of F-doped brucite were determined under ambient conditions and at high pressure. The hydroxyl vibrational properties were also studied.

Current Status of Research Progress |
Current Status of Research Progress
2: Research has progressed on the whole more than it was originally planned.
Reason
Difficulties were encountered in synthesizing phase A and phase E samples. The project of brucite was changed to be firstly conducted, and it moves on smoothly. Meaningful results have been obtained and were published in conferences. A manuscript is under preparation.
|
Strategy for Future Research Activity |
The research plans for the next fiscal year are as follows: (1) Synthesizing phase A and phase E samples using the multi-anvil apparatus; (2) Preparation and submission of the manuscript on the brucite project; (3) Investigating elemental doping effects on the hydrogen-bonding configurations of phase A, phase E, and other mantle hydrous minerals under ambient conditions and at high pressure.
