Abstract
There were two sorts of black mirrors in ancient China: Heiqigu and co mmon black mirrors (CBM). Their surface layers of about 100 mu m thick ness were studied by XRD, HREM, and Raman spectrometry. It was proved that the layers were mainly composed of nanometer-sized particles of S n-1-x(CuFePbSi)(x)O-2 (about 5 nm) with cassiterite structure. These r esults are of interest for further investigation into the corrosion-re sisting property and formation mechanism of the nanometer structure.
