• Aluminum Components in Bridgmanite Coexisting With Corundum and the CF‐Phase With Temperature 

      Wang, LinORCIDiD; Liu, ZhaodongORCIDiD; Koizumi, SanaeORCIDiD; Ballaran, Tiziana BoffaORCIDiD; Katsura, TomooORCIDiD (Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2023-01-22)
      Abstract Phase relations in the MgSiO3–MgAl2O4–Al2O3 system are investigated at 27 GPa and 2000–2600 K using a multi‐anvil apparatus. The AlAlO3 content ...
    • Oxygen Vacancy Ordering in Aluminous Bridgmanite in the Earth's Lower Mantle 

      Grüninger, HelenORCIDiD; Liu, ZhaodongORCIDiD; Siegel, Renée; Boffa Ballaran, TizianaORCIDiD; Katsura, TomooORCIDiD; Senker, JürgenORCIDiD; Frost, Daniel J.ORCIDiD (Geophysical Research Letters, 2019)
      Oxygen vacancies (OVs), that charge-balance the replacement of octahedrally coordinated Si4+ by Al3+ in the mineral bridgmanite, will influence transport properties in the lower mantle but little is known about their ...
    • Oxygen Vacancy Substitution Linked to Ferric Iron in Bridgmanite at 27 GPa 

      Fei, HongzhanORCIDiD; Liu, ZhaodongORCIDiD; McCammon, CatherineORCIDiD; Katsura, TomooORCIDiD (Geophysical Research Letters, 2020)
      Ferric iron can be incorporated into the crystal structure of bridgmanite by either oxygen vacancy substitution (MgFeO2.5 component) or charge-coupled substitution (FeFeO3 component) mechanisms. We investigated the ...
    • Stability and Solubility of the FeAlO3 Component in Bridgmanite at Uppermost Lower Mantle Conditions 

      Liu, ZhaodongORCIDiD; McCammon, CatherineORCIDiD; Wang, Biao; Dubrovinsky, Leonid; Ishii, TakayukiORCIDiD; Bondar, Dmitry; Nakajima, Ayano; Tange, YoshinoriORCIDiD; Higo, YujiORCIDiD; Cui, Tian; Liu, Bingbing; Katsura, TomooORCIDiD (Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2020)
      We report the stability and solubility of the FeAlO3 component in bridgmanite based on phase relations in the system MgSiO3-FeAlO3 at 27 GPa and 2000 K using a multi-anvil apparatus combined with in situ synchrotron X-ray ...
