Because of the rich fluorescent color and unique photochromic properties, hackmanite has attracted many mineralogists. In this paper, the basic gemmological characteristics and photochromic and fluorescence mechanisms of four different colors of hackmanite are further investigated through the study of their structural, compositional, and spectroscopic features. The results show the change in the color of hackmanite in photochromism is caused by the joint action of the F-center and the oxygen hole centers. The change in the UV-Vis spectra may be caused by the superposition of two peaks. Under 365 nm UV excitation, the peak of fluorescence spectra of 662 nm is related to the 2∏g→2∏u transition of S2−, the blue emission at 441 nm is caused by the 3P0.1→1S0 transition of s2 ions (Pb2+, Tl+, Sn2+ Sb2+), and at 541 nm is caused by the Mn2+ center. The results are helpful in deepening the understanding of photochromism, fluorescence mechanism, and its structure, expanding the application of hackmanite. |
