AbstractSince the discovery of the superconductivity in Ba2YCu3 O7-x, the system Ba-Y-Cu-O has generated vast interest. The presence and the properties of the intermediate phases were examined, and the existence of the BaY2O4 phase was confirmed.We have determined the crystal structure of this material from powder data; it is orthorhombic, Pnma (no 62) with a = 10.394(3) Å, b = 3.450(1) Å, c = 12.113(4) Å, isotypic with SrY2O4 (CaFe2O4-type). The observed and calculated intensity values are reported together with the powder diffraction data, obtained both by Guinier and diffractometer methods.

The crystal structure of skutterudite-related phase IrGe1.5Se1.5 has been refined by the Rietveld method from laboratory X-ray powder diffraction data. Refined crystallographic data for IrGe1.5Se1.5 are a=12.0890(2) Å, c=14.8796(3) Å, V=1883.23(6) Å3, space group R3 (No. 148), Z=24, and Dc=8.87 g/cm3. Its crystal structure can be derived from the ideal skutterudite structure (CoAs3), where Se and Ge atoms are ordered in layers perpendicular to the [111] direction of the original skutterudite cell. Weak distortions of the anion and cation sublattices were also observed.

A polycrystalline sample of Ca4ZrGe3O12 was synthesized using the nitrate–citrate method and heated at 850–1100 °C. Structural refinement based on X-ray powder diffraction data showed that the crystal structure is of the garnet type with a cubic unit-cell parameter [a = 12.71299(3) Å] and the space group Ia$\bar 3$d. The structural formula is presented as Ca3[CaZr]octa[Ge]tetraO12.

The crystal structure of poly[μ-citrato-dilithium(I)potassium(I)], [Li2K(C6H5O7)] n , has been solved and refined using laboratory X-ray powder diffraction data, and optimized using density functional techniques. The citrate anion triply chelates to the K+ cation through the hydroxyl group, the central carboxylate, and the terminal carboxylate. The KO7 coordination polyhedra share edges, forming chains parallel to the a axis. These chains share edges with one tetrahedral Li ion, and are bridged by edge-sharing pairs of the second tetrahedral Li ion, forming layers parallel to the ac plane.
