Abstract The title compound was prepared from the pure elements by sintering. The crystal structure was investigated by means of powder X-ray diffraction data. Ho5Pd19P12 exhibits the hexagonal Ho5Ni19P12-type structure with space group P 6 ‾ 2 m $P‾{6}2m$ , a = 13.1342(2), c = 3.9839(1) Å, R I = 0.060, R p = 0.080. The crystal structure can be described as a combination of two types of the structural units, [HoPd6P3] and [Ho3Pd10P6], respectively, mutually displaced by 1/2 along the crystallographic c axis. Quantum chemical calculations have been performed to analyze the electronic structure and provide deeper insight into the structure-property relationships. The results of the quantum chemical calculations indicate that the material features metallic bonding between Ho and Pd and covalent bonding between Pd and P.

Easy crystallization distinguishes xylitol from other sugars, which usually condense into a syrup from aqueous solution. Although two polymorphs, i.e. metastable monoclinic and high-density orthorhombic, have been reported for xylitol, only the latter is in practical use. Under high pressure, the same orthorhombic phase has been obtained by both isothermal and isochoric recrystallization. The stability of the orthorhombic xylitol phase to 5.0 GPa has been correlated with a uniform compression of all hydrogen bonds and some flexibility of the molecular conformation, which cushion the pressure-induced local strains. The anisotropic compressibility of xylitol and its thermal expansion are consistent with the rule of inverse effects of pressure and temperature. This inverse strain relationship has been correlated with the dimensions and orientation of xylitol molecules in the crystal structure.

ABSTRACTSome applications for long-wavelength infrared (LWIR) windows require environmental durability and mechanical strength in addition to infrared optical transparency; i.e., the windows must simultaneously serve as optical and as structural ceramics. The requirement of optical transparency at long IR wavelengths eliminates from consideration all ceramics based on oxides and other light-anion compounds, making this a particularly difficult materials problem. The structure-property relationships and chemical rationale used to guide both the screening of known compounds and the synthesis of new compounds likely to possess the desired properties rely on factors such as atomic mass, electronic configuration, coordination number, and crystal structure type.Our research has included the directed synthesis and characterization of a number of ternary indium sulfides as well as ternary calcium yttrium sulfides. Ternary indium sulfides feature both tetrahedral and octahedral coordination of indium. The crystal structure of KInS2 and its relationship to structures observed in other systems such as AIn2S4, A = Ca,Sr,Ba, is described. The crystal structure of CaY2S4 along with studies of yttrium-doped CaS are also described. The AIn2S4 compounds are more fully described in references [1] and [2].

AbstractRecently, Wang et al. (Z. Wang, J. Ha, Y. H. Kim, W. B. Im, J. McKittrick, S. P. Ong, Joule2018, 2, 914–926) predicted and discovered Sr2LiAlO4, a quaternary compound with a layered structure crystallizing in the monoclinic space group P21/m, and they refined the structure from PXRD data. Upon partially substituting strontium with europium, the substance exhibits a yellow broadband luminescence consisting of two overlapping emission bands. In this paper, the crystal structure of Sr2LiAlO4 is confirmed by additional SC-XRD measurements and a newly discovered polymorph of Sr2LiAlO4 is presented crystallizing in the orthorhombic space group Cmcm. When Eu2+ is incorporated, this polymorph exhibits only one of the emission bands present in the P21/m-polymorph. Additionally, two substitutional variants of Sr2LiAlO4 are presented along with their luminescence properties upon incorporating Eu2+. One with a partial substitution of strontium for barium, leading to a structure in space group Pnma, and one with a partial substitution of oxygen for nitrogen, exhibiting the structure in space group Cmcm. The structure-property relationships in the above mentioned compounds are discussed with regard to their luminescence performance.
