Improved X-ray powder diffraction data for synthetic PdSn are reported. Powder diffraction data were collected with a laboratory X-ray source (CuKα) for Rietveld refinement. Refined crystallographic data for PdSn (orthorhombic, Pnma) are a=6.1388(4), b=3.89226(3), c=6.3377(4) Å, V=151.43(2) Å3, Z=4, and Dx=9.87 g∕cm3.

Three phosphates, MIBaIn2(PO4)3 with MI=Na, K, Cs, isostructural to the langbeinite structure, have been studied from powder diffraction data collected with monochromatic radiation obtained from a conventional X-ray source. Precise powder data are reported, as well as cell parameters, i.e., a=10.026 08(9) Å, a=10.121 57(13) Å and a=10.226 94(9) Å for MI=Na, K and Cs, respectively. A Rietveld refinement has been carried out (space group P213), with final RF factors, 0.061, 0.041 and 0.027, and Rwp factors, 0.196, 0.142 and 0.129, for MI=Na, K and Cs, respectively. There are two octahedrally coordinated In3+ ions in the asymmetric unit and the final refinements suggest disorder on the two sites of the MI/Ba sublattice.

X-ray powder diffraction data for a new calcium zirconium phosphate Ca7Zr(PO4)6 are reported. The sample was prepared by heating mixtures of CaCO3, ZrO2, and NH4H2PO4 in prescribed molar ratios at 1623 K. Powder diffraction data were collected with a laboratory X-ray source (Cu Kα) for refinement of unit-cell parameters and intensity measurement of individual reflections. Crystallographic data were Ca7Zr(PO4)6, cubic, I-43d (No. 220), a=0.98338(1) nm, V=0.95097(3) nm3, Z=2, and Dx=3.29 Mg m−3. This compound is most probably isomorphous with eulytite.

Crystal structures in solid solution of Sm 1+x Ba 2−x Cu 3 O 7−y (X = 0 - 0.4) have been investigated by Rietveld analysis of X-ray powder diffraction data. The structure changes from orthorhombic to tetragonal at x=0.2. With the increase of x, Tc decreases monotonically from 90 K and the compound becomes semiconducting at x=0.4.

A new ternary compound Gd117Fe52Ge112 has been successfully synthesized and studied by means of X-ray powder diffraction technique. Gd117Fe52Ge112 crystallizes in a cubic Tb117Fe52Ge112-type structure with space group Fm3m(#225) and lattice parameter a=28.7680(1) Å. Crystal structure of Gd117Fe52Ge112 has been successfully refined using the Rietveld method from X-ray diffraction data. The R-factors for the Rietveld refinement are Rp=0.099 and Rwp=0.128. X-ray powder diffraction data with the figure of merit F30 of 80.4(30) are also reported.

Rietveld refinement using synchrotron powder X-ray diffraction data of the ranciéite, Ca0.19K0.01(Mn4+0.91◻0.09)O2⋅0.63H2O, crystal structure reveals significant differences from that reported previously. The interlayer H2O molecules occupy sites halfway between the Mn,O octahedral sheets. The Mn sites in the octahedral sheets have 10% vacancies, and the mean Mn–O distance indicates that all Mn is tetravalent (Mn4+). The interlayer Ca cations are located above and below the Mn vacancies and are octahedrally coordinated to three O2 atoms in the octahedral sheet and three H2O molecules in the interlayer.

A Rietveld refinement of powder X-ray diffraction data of BiSbO4 is reported. The refined lattice parameters are a =5.4690(2), b =4.8847(3), c = 11.8252(6) Å, and β = 101.131(3)°. The powder data are compared with the PDF patterns designated BiSbO4 (30-177) and SbBiO4 (7-191).

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 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.
