The crystal structures of a number of copper selenides have been re-examined using X-ray powder diffraction intensity data. |F0| values for Cu1•8Se at room temperature (a = 5.765 Å) are satisfied by a model based on space group Fm3m with 4 Se atoms per unit cell on the fcc sites, 5.2 Cu atoms on the tetrahedral sites, and 2.0 Cu atoms on the trigonal sites in the Se sublattice. Cu3Se2 is tetragonal, [Formula: see text] a = 6.402, c = 4.279 Å, with Cu(1) in 2(a), Cu(2) in 4(e) with x = 0.147 ± 5, z = 0.781 ± 9, and Se in 4(e) with x = 0.272 ± 3, z = 0.264 ± 7. CuSe2 has the orthorhombic C18 marcasite structure, Pnnm, a = 5.005, b = 6.182, c = 3.740 Å, with Cu in 2(a), and Se in 4(g) with x = 0.184 ± 1, y = 0.385 ± 1. CuSe2II has the cubic C2 pyrite structure, Pa3, a = 6.116 Å, with Cu in 4(a), and Se in 8(c) with x = 0.3891 ± 5.Neither αCuSe nor γCuSe have the CuS covellite structure.These results are discussed in some detail.

The crystal structures of the chiolite-related room temperature phases α-Na5M3F14 (MIII=Cr,Fe,Ga) are determined. For all of them, the space group is P21/n, Z=2; a=10.5096(3) Å, b=7.2253(2) Å, c=7.2713(2) Å, β=90.6753(7)° (M=Cr); a=10.4342(7) Å, b=7.3418(6) Å, c=7.4023(6) Å, β=90.799(5)° (M=Fe), and a=10.4052(1) Å, b=7.2251(1) Å, c=7.2689(1), β=90.6640(4)° (M=Ga). Rietveld refinements produce final RF factors 0.036, 0.033, and 0.035, and RWP factors, 0.125, 0.116, and 0.096, for MIII=Cr, Fe, and Ga, respectively. The MF6 polyhedra in the defective isolated perovskite-like layers deviate very few from perfect octahedra. Subtle octahedra tiltings lead to the symmetry decrease from the P4/mnc space group adopted by the Na5Al3F14 chiolite aristotype to the P21/n space group adopted by the title series. Facile twinning precluded till now the precise characterization of these compounds.

Crystal structures of (NH4)2KWO3F3 at 298 K and 113 K were solved from X-ray powder diffraction data and refined by the Rietveld technique. The compound is isostructural with elpasolite K2NaAlF6 at room temperature with space group Fm-3m, a=8.95850(5) Å, V=718.961(7) Å3, Z=4, Dx=3.363 g/cm3, and MW=364.02. The structure was refined over 18 parameters to Rwp=12.6%, Rp=10.9%, Rexp=5.03%, and RB=3.27% from 40 independent reflections. (NH4)2KWO3F3 was transformed upon cooling to a ferroelastic monoclinic phase with space group P21/n, a′=6.3072(3) Å, b′=6.3028(3) Å, c′=8.9882(3) Å, β′=90.242(2)°, V=357.30(3) Å3, Z=2, and Dx=3.383 g/cm3. The low-temperature structure at 113 K was refined over 28 parameters to Rwp=20.9%, Rp=21.3%, Rexp=12.5%, and RB=6.93% from 453 independent reflections.

Using the recently upgraded Polaris diffractometer at the ISIS Spallation Neutron Source (Rutherford Appleton Laboratory), the crystal structures of the post-perovskite polymorphs of NaCoF3and NaNiF3have been determined by time-of-flight neutron powder diffraction from samples, of mass 56 and 16 mg, respectively, recovered after synthesis at ∼20 GPa in a multi-anvil press. The structure of post-perovskite NaNiF3has also been determined by single-crystal synchrotron X-ray diffraction for comparison. All measurements were made at atmospheric pressure and room temperature. Despite the extremely small sample size in the neutron diffraction study, there is very good agreement between the positional parameters for NaNiF3obtained from the refinements of the X-ray and neutron data. Relative to the commonly used oxide post-perovskite analogue phases having calcium as theAcation, the axial ratios and derived structural parameters of these fluoride post-perovskites are more consistent with those of Mg0.91Fe0.09SiO3at high pressure and temperature. The structures of NaCoF3and NaNiF3are very similar, but the unit-cell and CoF6octahedral volumes of NaCoF3are larger than the corresponding quantities in NaNiF3, which supports the hypothesis that the Co2+ion has a high-spin state in this compound. The anisotropic atomic displacement parameters of the Na ions in NaNiF3post-perovskite are of similar magnitude to those of the F ions. The probability ellipsoid of the F1 ion is a prolate spheroid with its largest component parallel to thebaxis of the unit cell, corresponding to rotational motion of the NiF6octahedra about theaaxis of the crystal. Although they must be synthesized at pressures above about 18 GPa, theseABF3compounds are strongly metastable at atmospheric pressure and room temperature and so are highly suitable for use as analogues for (Mg,Fe)SiO3post-perovskite in the deep Earth, with significant advantages over oxides such as CaIrO3or CaPtO3.
