The ambient-temperature structures (orthorhombic, space group Cmc21) of the polar hexagonal tungsten bronzes RbNbW2O9 and KNbW2O9 have been determined by high-resolution powder neutron diffraction. Displacement of the A-site cation along the polar c axis with concomitant octahedral tilting occurs to optimize the A cation bonding environment, hence reducing the coordination from 18 to 16. This effect is more evident in KNbW2O9 due to decreased A cation size. The octahedral tilting in both compositions results in a doubling of the c axis that has not previously been reported, highlighting the importance of neutron diffraction as a complementary technique for structural determination of such systems.

A mixture of C60D36 with 24.5 \pm 4.5% C60 by weight has been analysed by neutron diffraction techniques. The diffraction data was converted to a reduced density function G(r) by Fourier transformation. The C60 component of the G(r) was subtracted out. This enabled a comparison for five molecular models of C60D36, with symmetries T, Th , S 6 and two D 3 d isomers, with the experimental G(r). This specimen of C60D36 was found to be best described by a T symmetry isomer, in agreement with 13C NMR and IR data for C60H36 [Attalla et al. (1993). J. Phys. Chem. pp. 6329–6331].
