Abstract

Single crystals of vermiculite were studied by high-pressure Raman scattering and x-ray diffraction methods using diamond-anvil cells with distilled water and mineral oil as pressure-transmitting media. When water was used, intercalation of water molecules to vermiculite was observed (pressure-induced intercalation). High-pressure Raman spectra from vermiculite samples in various intercalation states revealed the roles of interlamellar intercalant molecules and atoms in the lattice dynamics of vermiculite.
