It has been reported by Lally et. al. [1] that precipitates of hematite (Fe2O3, space group R3c) in a matrix of ilmenite (FeTiO3, space group R3) are lens shaped and flattened along the [0001]-direction. The coherency across the interface is lost by the introduction of a misfit dislocation network, which minimizes the strain due to the deviation in lattice parameters between the two phases [2]. The purpose of this paper is to present a new analysis of this network.

AbstractStrain relaxation in He+-implanted and annealed Si(001)/Si1−xGex heterostructures was investigated using transmission electron microscopy techniques and x-ray diffraction. Depending on the implant conditions, bubbles and/or platelets form below the Si/Si1−xGex interface upon annealing and act as nucleation sources for dislocation loops. The dislocation loops extend to the interface and form a misfit dislocation network there, resulting in relaxation of 30-80% of the strain in layers as thin as 100-300 nm. When bubbles form close to the interface, dislocations nucleate by a climb loop mechanism. When smaller bubbles form deeper in the Si substrate an irregular three-dimensional dislocation network forms below the interface resulting in an irregular misfit dislocation network at the interface. When platelets form deeper in the Si substrate, prismatic punching of dislocation loops is observed and dislocation reactions of misfit dislocations at the interface result in Lomer dislocation formation.

AbstractThe crystal structure of the phase Ce5AgxGe4−x (x = 0.1−1.08) has been determined using single-crystal X-ray diffraction data for Ce5Ag0.1Ge3.9. This phase is isotypic with Sm5Ge4: space group Pnma (No. 62), Pearson code oP36, Z = 4, a = 7.9632(2), b = 15.2693(5), c = 8.0803(2) Å; R1 = 0.0261, wR2 = 0.0460, 1428 F2 values and 48 variables. The two crystallographic positions 8d and 4c show Ge/Ag mixing, leading to a slight increase in the lattice parameters as compared to those of the pure binary compound Ce5Ge4.

Face Centered

Close-packed metal surfaces and heteroepitaxial systems frequently display a structure consisting of regularly spaced misfit dislocations, with a network of domain walls separating face-centered cubic (fcc) and hexagonal close-packed (hcp) domains. These structures can serve as templates for growing regularly spaced arrays of nanoislands. We present a theoretical investigation of the factors controlling the size and shape of the domains, using Pt(111) as a model system. Upon varying the chemical potential, the surface structure changes from being unreconstructed to the honeycomb, wavy triangles, "bright stars", or Moiré patterns observed experimentally on Pt(111) and other systems. For the particular case of Pt(111), isotropically contracted star-like patterns are favored over uniaxially contracted stripes.

Abstractβ-Y(BO2)3 was synthesized in a Walker-type multianvil module at 5.9 GPa/1000°C. The crystal structure has been elucidated through single-crystal X-ray diffraction. β-Y(BO2)3 crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pnma (no. 62) with the lattice parameters a=15.886(2), b=7.3860(6), and c=12.2119(9) Å. Its crystal structure will be discussed in the context of the isotypic lanthanide borates β-Ln(BO2)3 (Ln=Nd, Sm, Gd–Lu).

Abstract The equiatomic indide ScPtIn (ZrNiAl type, space group P 6 ‾ $‾{6}$ 2m) shows an extended solid solution Sc3Pt3–xIn3. Several samples of the Sc3Pt3–xIn3 series were synthesized from the elements by arc-melting and subsequent annealing, or directly in a high frequency furnace. The lowest platinum content was observed for Sc3Pt2.072(3)In3. All samples were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction and their lattice parameters and several single crystals were studied on the basis of precise single crystal X-ray diffractometer data. The correct platinum occupancy parameters were refined from the diffraction data. Decreasing platinum content leads to decreasing a and c lattice parameters. Satellite reflections were observed for the Sc3Pt3–xIn3 crystals with x = 0.31–0.83. These satellite reflections could be described with a modulation vector ( 1 3 , 1 3 , γ ) $\left(\frac{1}{3},\frac{1}{3},\gamma \right)$ ( γ = 1 2 $\gamma =\frac{1}{2}$ c* for all crystals) and are compatible with trigonal symmetry. The interplay of platinum filled vs. empty In6 trigonal prisms is discussed for an approximant structure with space group P3m1.

Well-shaped brown and pink isometric crystals were obtained as by-products of the synthesis of erbium selenides from the elements in evacuated and sealed silica ampoules with graphite inlets. They could be identified as erbium seleno mono- and disilicates by energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence and X-ray structure determination. The monosilicate Er2SeSiO4 crystallizes isotypically to Nd2SeSiO4 in the space group Pbcm with the lattice parameters a = 600.2(2), b = 688.0(2), c = 1075.2(2) pm and represents the second known seleno inosilicate of the rare earths. From X-ray structure analysis an isotypic relation between the disilicate Er3,75Ca0,25Se2,75Cl0,25Si2O7 and the compound Sm4S3Si2O7 was found, the former crystallizing in the space group I41/amd with the lattice parameters a - 1177.7(2) and c = 1376.5(2) pm. The doping o f the sorosilicate with the elements Ca and Cl originated from contam inations in the graphit inlets used in the procedure

Hematite Fe2o3

The compound was prepared by sol-gel method for spontaneous combustion with certain weight ratios (x=0.0,0.1,0.2,0.3,0.4,0.5,0.6,0.7,0.8,0.9), the samples were calcined at a temperature (900oC) for a period of two hours(2h), then studied its structural and magnetic properties.one of the most prominent results that we obtained from the X-ray diffraction technique (XRD) is that compound has several phases. Where the sample (NiFe2O4) appeared to be polycrystalline and the dominant phase in it is the cubic phase, while the other phase is (Hematite)(Fe2O3) A crystal structure rhomboid (Rhombohedral), in addition to these two phases, the phase with the existing quaternary structure appeared (Sr2Fe2O5) its called (Orthorhombic). The results of the magnetic properties that were obtained through the (VSM) device, and one of the most important of these properties is the magnetic hysteresis loop by analyzing the magnetic hysteresis loop at (x=0.3), where the least area of the hysteresis loop or the least width of the hysteresis loop One of the most important parameters of the magnetic properties is the saturation magnetism (μS) and its value ranges from (19.76-3.86) (emu/gr), the highest value was at (X=0.3) and its value is (19.76emu/gr) and in general its value decreases with increasing concentration of strontium. The residual magnetism (Mr) ranges between (7.45-1.58) (emu/gr), where it reached its highest value at (x=0.3) and its value is (7.45emu/gr), and generally its value decreases with increasing concentration of strontium. In addition to that, there is another parameter which is coercion or Magnetic coercivity (Hc) ranges in value (1751.104-209.26) (Oe), reaching its lowest value at (x=0.3), and then increases with increasing strontium concentration until it reaches its highest value at (x=0.9), where it reached its value is (1751.104Oe). The square rate represented by the symbol (μi) has high values. This means that there is a mutual coupling between the soft and hard magnetic phases, which was the highest value at (x=0.3) and its value is (4.93).
