2 + What is Raman Spectroscopy? The Raman effect is the excitation or de-excitation of vibrational modes resulting from the inelastic scattering of light from a gas, liquid, or solid with a shift in energy from that of the usually incident radiation.

3 + Spinel Structure

4 + How are spinels made?

5 + Spinel Synthesis Due to the high heat at which they were synthesized, the spinel (Fe 3 O 4 ) form tended to oxidize down to the corundum (Fe 2 O 3 ) structure.

6 + Spinel Synthesis (cont.) The samples were then heated to 700C in a reducing environment of 2% H 2 / 98% Argon gas flow

7 + Raman Microscope

8 + Raman Data A typical Raman Spectra of Iron Chromite

9 + Raman Data (cont.) This table displays the Raman bands for Fe x Cr 3-x O 4. FeCr 2 O Fe 1.2 Cr 1.8 O Fe 1.4 Cr 1.6 O Fe 1.6 Cr 1.4 O Fe 1.8 Cr 1.2 O Fe 2 CrO Fe 2.2 Cr 0.8 O Fe 2.4 Cr 0.6 O Fe 2.6 Cr 0.4 O

10 + Laser Intensity This series of Raman spectra shows the conversion of the spinel phase to γ -Fe 2 O 3 and finally to corundum phase α -Fe 2 O 3

11 + Conclusions The reduction of the chromite powders was successful in producing high crystalline spinel phase samples which was confirmed using XRD. The Raman position of the A1g mode shows no obvious trend on the amount of iron within the iron chromite. Literature shows that the lattice constant change is not linear for Fe x Cr 3-x O 4 and so the dependence upon cation exchange may not be obvious. However, forms of iron oxides are common corrosion products of stainless steel in high temperature environments, and Raman spectroscopy provides a useful tool for identification of these products.
