金绿宝石（Alaxadrite） Alexandrite (Opal and Alexandrite) 1, material properties [chemical composition] beryllium aluminum oxide, the composition of BeAl2O4, where Al can be a small amount of chromium replacement. [system] orthorhombic system A flat or plate-like crystal with streaks on the surface. Twin twin was common, hexagonal habit called three crystal. [cleavage] incomplete - medium columnar cleavage. A gem of excellent toughness and without optical effect. [8.5] Mohs hardness. [colors] green, green, yellow, yellow, honey, yellow or brown. [transparency] transparent - opaque. Bright glass sheen. [refractive index] 1.74 - 1.75. [double break rate] 0.008 - 0.010. [density] 3.71 - 3.75 [optical] two axis crystal positive light. [dispersion value] 0.009. [3] color is mainly characterized by changes in hue and shade. Alexandrite strong pleochroism, with obvious color, green / orange / Purple - red. Yellow and brown gold emeralds are weak to obvious. [special optical effect] color change effect and cat eye effect. The chrome - colored Alexandrite exhibits different colors in different light sources - red in the light of a candle or tungsten filament, and green in a fluorescent light. The cat eye effect is caused by acicular inclusions or tubular voids parallel to the C axis in alexandrite. A fingerprint shaped elongated tubular filamentary inclusion that forms a cats eye. [luminous] Alexandrite is weak in long wave ultraviolet light; short wave ultraviolet light is weak red. The yellow and brown Alexandrite does not emit light because of trace amounts of iron [] variable absorption spectra absorption spectra of stone has a typical, typical absorption spectra, a double red light district 680nm district two, orange line, with 580nm as the center has a wide absorption band, absorption blue region absorption line, purple zone. 444nm strong absorption band of yellow, brown, gold, emerald and purple areas, two weak belts in blue green zone. 444nm is the diagnostic line for yell
