The lattice parameters of three perovskite-related oxides have been measured with high precision at room temperature. An accuracy of the order of 10−5 has been achieved by applying a sophisticated high-resolution X-ray diffraction technique which is based on the modified Bond method. The results on cubic SrTiO3 [a = 3.905268 (98) Å], orthorhombic DyScO3 [a = 5.442417 (54), b = 5.719357 (52) and c = 7.904326 (98) Å], and orthorhombic NdGaO3 [a = 5.428410 (54), b = 5.498407 (55) and c = 7.708878 (95) Å] are discussed in view of possible systematic errors as well as non-stoichiometry in the crystals.

ABSTRACTThe thin films Co81−xCr15PtxTa4 with (0002) crystallographic texture have been sputter deposited with and without substrate bias. The lattice parameter of the thin films has been determined by a combination of x-ray diffraction and electron diffraction techniques. The resolution of the electron diffraction was enhanced by a digital imaging technique. The variation rate of the a lattice parameter with Pt content is consistent with Vegard's law. The change in the c lattice parameter is much greater than what is expected from Vegard's law.

Since the measurement of residual stress by X-ray diffraction techniques is dependent on the difference in angle of a diffraction peak maximum when the sample is examined consecutively with its surface at two different angles to the diffracting planes, it is important that these diffraction angles be obtained precisely, preferably with an accuracy of ± 0.01 deg. 2θ. Similar accuracy is desired in precise lattice parameter determination. In such measurements, it is imperative that the diffractometer be well-aligned. It is in the context of diffractometer alignment with the aid of a silicon powder standard free of residual stress that the diffraction peak analysis techniques described here have been developed, preparatory to residual stress determinations.

Nanosized polycrystalline samples of (Er1−uGdu)2O3(0 ≤u≤ 1.0) were synthesized by a sol–gel technique. X-ray diffraction data were collected and the crystal structures were refined by the Rietveld method. All samples are found to have the same crystal system and formed solid solutions over the whole range ofu. The Er3+and Gd3+ions were randomly distributed over two cationic sites, 8band 24d, in the space groupIa\bar{3} (206) in all refined structures. The lattice parameter was found to vary non-linearly with the composition (u). The average microstrain and average crystallite size have been calculated from the Williamson–Hall plots for each sample. The average size ranges from 50 to 70 nm, and the microstrain from 0.4 to 1.7%.

In order to clarify the mechanical features of a metal under thermal cyclic loading for the system Ni30Cr-Cr2O3, a specific study has been carried out. In the present work, the residual stresses in both the metal and the oxide layer have been investigated. An adapted method is applied to process the experimental results that were obtained by using in-situ high temperature synchrotron diffraction at European Synchrotron Radiation Facility. The sin2ψ analysis provides information about the stress in metal and oxide. X-ray diffraction provides also the lattice parameter between crystallographic planes in the metal. To obtain correct stress values, a correction method is also proposed taking into account different discrepancies sources to ensure the equation of mechanical balance.
