AbstractSecondary phosphate assemblages from the Hagendorf Süd granitic pegmatite, containing the new Mn-Al phosphate mineral, nordgauite, have been characterized using scanning electron microscopy and electron microprobe analysis. Nordgauite nodules enclose crystals of the jahnsite—whiteite group of minerals, showing pronounced compositional zoning, spanning the full range of Fe/Al ratios between jahnsite and whiteite. The whiteite-rich members are F-bearing, whereas the jahnsite-rich members contain no F. Associated minerals include sphalerite, apatite, parascholzite, zwieselite-triplite solid solutions and a kingsmountite-related mineral. The average compositions of whiteite and jahnsite from different zoned regions correspond to jahnsite-(CaMnMn), whiteite-(CaMnMn) and the previously undescribed whiteite-(CaMnFe) end-members. Mo-Kα CCD intensity data were collected on a twinned crystal of the (CaMnMn)-dominant whiteite and refined in P2/a to wRobs = 0.064 for 1015 observed reflections.

Herein we compare the lattice parameters, room temperature shear and Young’s moduli, and phonon thermal conductivities of Ti2AlC0.5N0.5 and Ti3Al(C0.5, N0.5)2 solid solutions with those of their end members, namely Ti2AlC, Ti2AlN, Ti3AlC2, and Ti4AlN2.9. In general, the replacement of C by N decreases the unit cell volumes and increases the elastic moduli and phonon thermal conductivities. The increase in the latter two properties, however, is sensitive to the concentrations of defects, most likely vacancies on one or more of the sublattices.

Solid solutions are pervasive in minerals and in industrial inorganic materials. The analyst is often called upon to provide qualitative and quantitative X-ray phase analysis for specimens containing solid solutions when all that is available are Powder Diffraction File (PDF) data or commercial standards for the end members. In an earlier paper (1) we presented several examples of substantial errors in accuracy of quantitative analysis that can arise when the crystallinity and composition of the analyte standard do not match those of the analyte in the sample of interest. We recommended that to obtain more accurate quantitative analyses, one should determine the analyte composition (e.g., from XRF on grains seen in a SEM or from comparison of cell parameters with those of the end members) and synthesize an analyte standard with this composition and with a crystallinity approximating that of the analyte (e.g., as determined from peak breadth or α1/ α2 splitting).

Perovskite-structured solid solutions intended for use as microwave dielectric resonators were studied by Raman spectroscopy. Two distinct categories were investigated: (i) simple perovskite–simple perovskite solid solutions, that is, CaTiO3–SrTiO3 (CTST), CaTiO3–CaZrO3 (CTCZ), CaTiO3–NdAlO3 (CTNA), and CaTiO3–LaGaO3 (CTLG); and (ii) simple perovskite–complex perovskite solid solutions, such as CaTiO3–SrMg1/3Nb2/3O3 (CTSMN). In the latter category, the influence of A-site ion radius was also addressed by examining 0.5CaTiO3– 0.5LaMg1/2Ti1/2O3 (0.5CT–0.5LMT), 0.5SrTiO3 (ST)–0.5LMT, and 0.5BaTiO3 (BT)–0.5LMT. Raman data from the end members and solid solutions are compared, paying particular attention to F2g and A1g mode bands, often associated with ordering of B-site species.

Syntheses along the Tl<sub>5</sub>(As,Sb)<sub>13</sub>S<sub>22</sub> compositional line in the Tl<sub>2</sub>S-As<sub>2</sub>S<sub>3</sub>-Sb<sub>2</sub>S<sub>3</sub> phase system showed that the compositional range of rebulite extends from  Tl<sub>5</sub>As<sub>9.5</sub>Sb<sub>3.5</sub>S<sub>22</sub> to Tl<sub>5</sub>As<sub>7.75</sub>Sb<sub>5.25</sub>S<sub>22</sub>. The Sb-rich end-member is in equilibrium with jankovićite of ideal composition Tl<sub>5</sub>Sb<sub>7.5</sub>As<sub>5.5</sub>S<sub>22</sub>. It is considered to be the As-rich end-member of the jankovićite solid solution. The crystal structure analyses of crystals from the As and Sb end-members of rebulite show that the Sb/As substitution is present in Sb3, Sb4, Sb5, As1 and As2 structural sites. Of them, Sb3 is always Sb dominated whereas other four vary from As- to Sb-dominated over the range of the solid solution. The change of the structural topology from jankovićite to rebulite, the closely related but not identical structures, is explained through necessity to accommodate the smaller volumes of the As coordination polyhedra and is accomplished through unit-cell twinning over the periodic (001)<sub>reb</sub> twin boundaries. The As end-member of the rebulite solid solution is in equilibrium with the phase of Tl<sub>2.4</sub>Sb<sub>0.68</sub>As<sub>7.18</sub>S<sub>13</sub> ideal composition, interpreted as imhofite.

AbstractMicas incorporate a wide variety of elements in their crystal structures. Elements occurring in significant concentrations in micas include: Si, IVAl, IVFe3+, B and Be in the tetrahedral sheet; Ti, VIAl, VIFe3+, Mn3+, Cr, V, Fe2+, Mn2+, Mg and Li in the octahedral sheet; K, Na, Rb, Cs, NH4, Ca and Ba in the interlayer; and O, OH, F, Cl and S as anions. Extensive substitutions within these groups of elements form compositionally varied micas as members of different solid-solution series. The most common true K micas (94% of almost 6750 mica analyses) belong to three dominant solid-solution series (phlogopite–annite, siderophyllite–polylithionite and muscovite–celadonite). Theirclassification parameters include: Mg/(Mg+Fetot) [=Mg#] formicas with VIR >2.5 a.p.f.u. and VIAl <0.5 a.p.f.u.; Fetot/(Fetot+Li) [=Fe#] formicas with VIR >2.5 a.p.f.u. and VIAl >0.5 a.p.f.u.; and VIAl/(VIAl+Fetot+Mg) [=Al#] formicas with VIR <2.5 a.p.f.u. The common true K micas plot predominantly within and between these series and have Mg6Li <0.3 a.p.f.u. Tainiolite is a mica with Mg6Li >0.7 a.p.f.u., or, fortr ansitional stages, 0.3–0.7 a.p.f.u. Some true K mica end-members, especially phlogopite, annite and muscovite, form binary solid solutions with non-K true micas and with brittle micas (6% of the micas studied). Graphical presentation of true K micas using the coordinates Mg minus Li (= mgli) and VIFetot+Mn+Ti minus VIAl (= feal) depends on theirclassification according to VIR and VIAl, complemented with the 50/50 rule.

Recently first principles microscopic calculations, using the generalized gradient approximation, appeared for the solid mixed system AgCl x Br 1-x at various compositions. Here, we suggest a model that can estimate the compressibility of the mixed crystals in terms of the compressibilities of the end members alone. This model makes use of a single parameter, i.e. the compressibility of a defect volume, when considering the volume variation produced by the addition of a "foreign molecule" to a host crystal as a defect volume.
