In a previous paper we have shown that compositional variations in BaxLa1-xFeO3-y materials prepared in air. are accommodated in a different way than in other perovskite-related ferrites probably due to the bigger size of barium.When oxidated BaxLa1-xFe3+,4+O3-y samples in the 1/2 ≤ x ≤ 2/3 range, are reduced by annealing at 1100°C for 24h. in flowing Ar-5%H2, all iron,as deduced from chemical analysis data, is found in the III state oxidation. Powder X-ray diffraction data in this range (La1/2Ba1/2FeO2.75-La1/3Ba2/3FeO2.67) can be indexed on the basis of a single cubic perovskite unit cell (ac ≃ 3.95Å)In order to elucidate the way in which anionic vacancies are accommodated in these solids an electron diffraction (ED) and microscopy study was performed, similar results being obtained in both La1/2Ba1/2 FeO2.75 and La1/3Ba2/3FeO2.67samples.

Sr_3(Ru_{0.336},Pt_{0.664})CuO_6 crystallizes as a monoclinic structure [space group R12/c; lattice parameters a = 9.595 (15), b = 9.595 (15), c = 11.193 (2) Å and \gamma = 120°]. The crystal structure is pseudotrigonal and the crystal investigated here by single-crystal X-ray diffraction was a multiple twin composed of six individuals. The twin laws are a combination of rhombohedral obverse/reverse twinning plus the threefold axis from the trigonal system. The crystal structure is related to the hexagonal perovskites. Each Pt/Ru atom is coordinated pseudo-octahedrally by O atoms, while the overall coordination polyhedra for Cu atoms can be regarded as a strongly distorted trigonal prism, where the Cu atom is clearly shifted from the center. Each [(Ru_{0.336},Pt_{0.664})O_6] octahedron is connected to two Cu—O polyhedra via a common edge, and thus chains are formed parallel to the crystallographic c axis. Sr^{2+} ions are incorporated between the chains and are coordinated by eight O atoms. All bond distances and angles are in good agreement with literature values. Electron-microscopy studies confirm the results from X-ray diffraction and all observed domain structures can be interpreted exactly with the established twin model. No indication of Pt/Ru ordering was found in either the X-ray or the electron-microscopy investigation.
