The possibility of using femtosecond pulses from an X-ray free-electron laser to collect diffraction data from protein crystals formed in their native cellular organelle has been explored. X-ray diffraction of submicrometre-sized alcohol oxidase crystals formed in peroxisomes within cells of genetically modified variants of the methylotrophic yeastHansenula polymorphais reported and characterized. The observations are supported by synchrotron radiation-based powder diffraction data and electron microscopy. Based on these findings, the concept ofin celluloserial crystallography on protein targets imported into yeast peroxisomes without the need for protein purification as a requirement for subsequent crystallization is outlined.

A new compound—Ba3MnSi2O8 in the system BaO–MnO–SiO2 was synthesized and studied by powder X-ray diffraction. The compound is hexagonal, space group—P6/mmm, a=5.67077 Å, c=7.30529 Å, Z=1, Dx=5.353. The obtained powder X-ray diffractometry (XRD) data were interpreted by the Powder Data Interpretation Package.

The structures of the layered intergrowth phases SbIIISb^{\rm V}_xAl-xTiO6 (x \simeq 0, A = Ta, Nb) have been refined by the Rietveld method, using X-ray diffraction data obtained using a synchrotron source. The starting models for these structures were derived from those of Sb^{\rm III}_3Sb^{\rm V}_xA 3−xTiO14 (x = 1.26, A = Ta and x = 0.89, A = Nb), previously solved by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. There were no significant differences between the derived models and the final structures, validating the approach used to obtain the models and confirming that the n = 1 and n = 3 members of the family, Sb^{\rm III}_nSb^{\rm V}_xA n−xTiO4n+2 are part of a structurally homologous series.

Ternary Al–Cu–Ir phases, isostructural to the Al–Cu–Rh ω and C2 phases, were found to be around the Al70Cu20Ir10 and Al60Cu15Ir25 compositions, respectively. Using powder X-ray diffraction, the former was found to have a tetragonal structure (space group P4/mnc) with a=6.4142(9) Å and c=14.842(4) Å, and the latter has a cubic structure (space group Fm3) with a=15.3928(6) Å.

In the present work X-ray studies were performed on annealed Fe78Nb2B20 amorphous alloy prepared by melt-spinning technique. All the samples were annealed in vacuum for 1 hour at temperatures up to 800°C. For the studied alloy -Fe and Fe2B are the stable, crystalline phases. The -Fe crystallized as the first crystalline phase in the sample annealed at 350°C. On the other hand, metastable Fe3B phase appeared to be stable during annealing in 425-800°C temperature range. The best fitting of the experimental X-ray data to as jet available ICDD files was obtained for Ni3P type structure (39-1315 – S.G.: I (82)). New, experimental powder diffraction data for metastable Fe3B phase prepared according to ICDD standards were elaborated for the sample annealed at 600°C. For this sample the best agreement between the calculated values of lattice constants and positions of experimental diffraction lines was obtained. The X-ray data were collected using X-Pert Philips diffractometer equipped with curved graphite monochromator on diffracted beam. The Treor program was applied for the analysis of X-ray diffraction data.

AbstractThis paper describes the procedures used to retrieve JCPDS powder diffraction data by certain characteristics. These characteristics may include chemistry, mineral name, highest intensity dspacing, largest dspacing, PDF number, etc. The storage scheme used for the powder data and the procedures used to enhance the retrieval speed are described.

PLZT of the compositions 0≤L≤12, and 0≤T≤10 was studied in order to describe the structure of the phases as a function of composition. This range contains a mixed region with PLZT+La2Zr2O7, an orthorhombic, a rhombohedral (hexagonal) phase, a tetragonal phase, and a mixture of different PLZT phases. Each phase pure composition is described by X-ray diffraction.
