AbstractAg2CdSnS4 was synthesized by a two step mechanochemical synthesis route. From a detailed analysis of the observed reflections in the X-ray powder diffraction pattern, the crystal structure proposed in the literature (space group Cmc21 [E. Parthé, K. Yvon, R. H. Deitch, Acta Crystallogr.1969, B25, 1164–1174; O. V. Parasyuk, I. D. Olekseyuk, L. V. Piskach, S. V. Volkov, V. I. Pekhnyo, J. Alloys Compd.2005, 399, 173–177]) is questionable. Our structural investigations presented in this contribution point to the fact that Ag2CdSnS4 crystallizes in the monoclinic wurtzkesterite-type structure (space group Pn). At around T = 200°C, a phase transition to the orthorhombic wurtzstannite-type structure (space group Pmn21) is observed.

Compound HoCo0.67Ga1.33 was synthesized and studied by means of X-ray powder diffraction technique. HoCo0.67Ga1.33 was found to have the orthorhombic CeCu2 structure (space group Imma) with a=4.3479(2) Å, b=7.0351(3) Å, c=7.4876(3) Å, Z=4, and Dcalc=8.62 g/cm3. The crystal structure of HoCo0.67Ga1.33 was also refined by the Rietveld method. Ho atoms were found to occupy the 4e positions and mixed Co/Ga atoms to share the 8h positions of the space group Imma (No. 74).

The crystal structures of the fast ionic conductors Li6MgBr8 and Li2MgBr4 oC 14 and cF 56 were determined by single crystal X -ray diffraction and neutron powder studies, respectively. At ambient temperature, Li6MBr8 (M = Mg, Mn) crystallize in a Suzuki-type structure (space group Fm3̄̄̄ m , Z = 4, Li6MgBr8: a = 1098.0(1) pm, 114 unique reflections, R = 0.037). Li2MgBr4 oC 14 crystallizes in a SnMn2S4-type structure (space group Cmmm , Z = 2, a = 777.94(2), b = 1104.25(4), and c = 386.55(1) pm , RI, = 0.073, 318 K), the high-temperature polymorph (HTM I) in the Li2MnBr4 cF 56 type (space group Fd 3 m , Z = 8, a = 1124.55(4) pm , RI , = 0.052, 673 K). These structure types are more or less ordered NaCl superstructures. The thermal ellipsoids of the lithium ions are discussed in terms of the conduction pathways and the order-disorder phase transitions observed.

Abstract The ternary compound β-Li2ZnGe was prepared and its structure determined from powder and single crystal data. The compound crystallizes in a modified Na3As type structure, space group Ṗ̇̇̇̇̇̇̇̇̇̇̇̇̇̇3̄m 1 - D33d.The cell parameters are: a = 432.6 pm, c = 1647.0 pm, c/a= 3.83.A phase transition between a-and β-Li2ZnGe was found and the reaction of the elements lithium, zinc and germanium to a-Li2ZnGe was followed by differential thermal analysis. The temperatures and the enthalpies of transition and fusion were determined.

For crystals of ammonium hydrogen succinate it is known that the space group is P{\bar 1} with Z = 2 at 293 K and the second-order phase transition occurs around 170 K. X-ray crystal structure analyses above and below 170 K have been carried out in order to study the change in mode of short hydrogen bonds between the hydrogen succinate ions. The space group was determined to be P{\bar 1} at 150 and 190 K by structure analysis. No ordering of the H-atom positions in the short hydrogen bonds occurs by the phase transition. The hydrogen bonds show a decrease in the O...O distances with a decrease in temperature from 290 to 190 K, but no significant change in the geometries between 190 and 150 K. Disorder of the NH4 + ion is not observed at 297, 190 and 150 K. Significant change through the phase transition is found only in the geometry of one of the N—H...O hydrogen bonds between ammonium and hydrogen succinate ions.

Abstract Phase formation in the solid solution TbNiIn1−x Ga x at 873 K was investigated in the full concentration range by means of powder X-ray diffraction and EDX analysis. The samples were synthesized by arc-melting of the pure metals with subsequent annealing at 873 K for one month. The influence of the substitution of indium by gallium on the type of structure and solubility was studied. The solubility ranges have been determined and changes of the unit cell parameters were calculated on the basis of powder X-ray diffraction data: TbNiIn1–0.4Ga0–0.6 (ZrNiAl-type structure, space group P 6 ‾ 2 m $P‾{6}2m$ , a = 0.74461(8)–0.72711(17) and c = 0.37976(5)–0.37469(8) nm); TbNiIn0.2–0Ga0.8–1.0 (TiNiSi-type structure, space group Pnma, а = 0.68950(11)–0.68830(12), b = 0.43053(9)–0.42974(6), с = 0.74186(10)–0.73486(13) nm). The crystal structures of TbNiGa (TiNiSi type, Pnma, a = 0.69140(5), b = 0.43047(7), c = 0.73553(8) nm, wR2=0.0414, 525 F 2 values, 21 variables), TbNiIn0.83(1)Ga0.17(1) (ZrNiAl type, P 6 ‾ 2 m $P‾{6}2m$ , a = 0.74043(6), c = 0.37789(3) nm, wR2 = 0.0293, 322 F 2 values, 16 variables) and TbNiIn0.12(2)Ga0.88(2) (TiNiSi type, Pnma, a = 0.69124(6), b = 0.43134(9), c = 0.74232(11) nm, wR2 = 0.0495, 516 F 2 values, 21 variables) have been determined. The characteristics of the solid solutions and the variations of the unit cell parameters are briefly discussed.
