Summary
the amount of explosive samples is several tens of mg at
most, the experiments can be carried out safely.
In this paper, we apply this technique to the study of the
properties of NB: The measurement system of Raman
spectroscopy for laser-shocked NB is developed and the
Raman spectra of NB at high pressures are obtained.The
data are compared with those under isothermal compres-
sion.It is also investigated how the thermodynamic
parameters such as temperature and density affect the
spectrum.
3.5 GPa, and peak shifts at
particular frequencies are observed.The shifts are plotted as a
function of density and compared with the data under isothermal
compression.Both data provide the same results.This indicates
that the numbers of peak shifts of nitrobenzene depend solely on
material density.
1 Introduction
2Experiments
The reaction mechanism of energetic materials is very
important for understanding their reactivity and safety.
Since nitrobenzene (NB) has the simplest structure in
aromatic nitro compounds, which are widely known as
energetic materials, its behavior and properties such as
decomposition processes

, the Hugoniot

and Raman spectra
(8)
have been investigated under various
conditions.
Recently, the techniques for measuring Raman spectra of
shocked materials using laser-driven shock waves often have
been used
(9,10)
.These techniques have some advantages.
First, they allow us to control the timing of measurements
with high resolution.Also, shocks can be reproducibly
generated and probed at a high repetition rate.Therefore,
efficient signal averaging is possible, producing high quality
spectra.Moreover, since the apparatus is tabletop size and
The system developed here is shown in Figure 1(a).The
laser beam produced by a Nd:YAG laser system is divided
into two paths by semireflecting mirror.One is the
fundamental beam (1064 nm, 500 mJ) used for generating
shock waves.The wavelength of the other path is 532 nm
produced by passing through a second harmonic generator
(SHG) and is used as the probe light for Raman.The probe
light is finally focused on the sample in a spot of 800
, and the energy is about 130 mJ.The length of the probe-
light path can be changed to adjust the arrival time on the
target.

focuses in the sample is adjusted to the same point as the
focus point of L1.The light radiating from the other end of
the optical fiber enters into a spectrometer, and it goes
through the notch filter that cuts a Rayleigh scattering light,
and is dispersed by holographic grating.Thus, a spectrum is
obtained at the exit of the spectrometer and finally focused
on the charge-coupled device detector cooled by liquid
nitrogen.Vibrational peak positions are obtained with an

of laser-driven shock experiments and provided the con-
sistent results

is used and the Gr¸neisen
parameter is assumed to be 2.0. It can be seen that the
sample is compressed to 3 GPa by direct shock wave.Then
the reflecting shock wave from the glass window with a
higher shock impedance than that of the sample increases
the pressure up to 4 GPa.The horizontal bars indicate the
timing of the probe-light irradiation.The length of the bars
means the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the probe
light (10 ns).The average pressure within FWHM at 32 ns
after the shock wave arrival is 2.44
3 Results and Discussion
Figure 2 shows a Raman spectrum of NB under shock
compression at 32 ns after arriving of the shock wave at the
sample.The spectrum was measured with a single probe
laser pulse.Several bands can be assigned, but some
unassigned bands exist (labeled by ™U∫ in Figure 2).Since
the positions of these unassigned bands do not change at any
shock pressure and these are also observed without NB
sample, it was concluded that these peaks were not
originated from NB.
The pressure change in the sample is rather complex: The
shock wave in the sample should be attenuated and the
reflective shock wave is generated at the interface between
the sample and the glass window.We estimate the pressure
0.09 GPa and is
0.13 GPa at 54 ns.

density.For simplicity, only the Raman bands of NO

4 Conclusion
Insitu
Raman spectroscopy of laser-shocked NB is carried
out.Raman spectra of shocked NB are obtained and shock-
induced peak shifts are observed.It is found from the
comparison with the data obtained under isothermal
compression that the peak shifts of NB depend solely on
material density up to at least 3.5 GPa.

metric stretching mode against density.
Using the laser with higher input energy and the
spectrometer with higher performance, more precise
measurements and analyses of Raman spectra of NB are
planned in the future.It is indicated that detonation occurs
under shock compression at higher than 15 GPa
(6)
.Hence,
by measuring Raman spectra of NB at higher shock
pressures with high time resolution, the initiation processes
of its decomposition are expected to be clarified.Also, the
dependence of the processes on thermodynamic quantities
such as temperature, pressure, and density could be known
by comparison with the data in static conditions.These
would allow us to establish a model of the detonation of
aromatic nitro compounds.

values using the Hugoniot of NB
(6)
.The data from Ref.8
seem to have a good agreement with our results.In this
figure, using an isothermal compressibility obtained by
fitting the data of pressure-volume relation
(6)
to a Murna-
ghan equation, the Raman peak shifts in isothermal static
compression
(15)
are also plotted as a function of density.The
uncertainty of the peak positions in static compression is
0.5 cm
1
.It seems that the data in shock compression and
those in static compression provide the same results.This
suggests that the peak shifts of NB in both static and shock
compression conditions depend not on temperature but
only on material density.It should be noted that the similar
dependence of the peak shifts on density is also observed for
anthracene
(16)
.
The data points around normalized density 1.5 obtained
by Kobayashi and Sekine
(8)
deviate from the data in static
compression.Since it has been suggested that NB undergoes
a polymerization at static high pressures over 7 GPa
(6)
,i.e.
normalized density about 1.5, the peak shifts in static
compression over 1.5 should be affected by this polymer-
ization reaction.Hence, the peak shifts in static compression
are expected to be different from those in shock compres-
sion.
The peak shifts in C
H stretching mode are about four
times larger than that of NO
2
symmetric stretching mode in
both shock and static compression.Kobayashi and Sekine
(8)
explained the small shifts of the NO
2
stretching mode as the
cancellation of two factors, that is, the pressure-induced
softening mechanism in hydrogen-bonded materials and the
general pressure-induced hardening mechanism.For quan-
titative discussion, the quantum mechanical calculations of
electronic states in NB molecules are necessary, but those
are beyond the scope of this paper.
