Thin single crystal films of N-(4-nitrophenyl)-(L)-prolinol (NPP) were prepared using the modified shear method. The surface orientation of the single crystal films was determined by x-ray diffraction and was found to be [101]. Polarized microscopy showed uniform birefringence and complete extinction when the thin film was rotated under crossed polarization, implying single crystal thin films with uniform surface were obtained. The molecular orientation in the NPP thin film was studied by polarized UV-visible and polarized micro-FTIR spectroscopy along with x-ray diffraction. The orientation of the NPP molecules was found to be almost parallel to the plane of the film. This parallel orientation is because of the polar (hydrogen bonding) interaction of the −(OH) and the N=O groups of the NPP molecule with the hydrophilic substrate surface. The results of the second harmonic generation (SHG) measurements are consistent with such a molecular orientation. These results show that the final molecular and crystallographic orientation in the film is determined by its initial molecule-substrate interaction.

The ternary antimonides RE4T7Sb6 (RE=Gd-Lu; T =Ru, Rh) have been synthesized from the elements by arc-melting and subsequent annealing in an induction furnace. The samples have been characterized by powder X-ray diffraction. Four structures were refined on the basis of single-crystal X-ray diffractometer data: U4Re7Si6 type, space group Im3m with a=862.9(2) pm, wR2=0.0296, 163 F2 values for Er4Ru7Sb6; a=864.1(1) pm, wR2=0.1423, 153 F2 values for Yb4Ru7Sb6; a=872.0(2) pm, wR2=0.0427, 172 F2 values for Tb4Rh7Sb6; and a=868.0(2) pm, wR2=0.0529, 154 F2 values for Er4Rh7Sb6, with 10 variables per refinement. The structures have T1@Sb6 octahedra and slightly distorted RE@T26Sb6 cuboctahedra as building units. The distorted cuboctahedra are condensed via all trapezoidal faces, and this network leaves octahedral voids for the T1 atoms. The ruthenium-based series of compounds was studied by temperature-dependent magnetic susceptibility measurements. Lu4Ru7Sb6 is Pauli-paramagnetic. The antimonides RE4Ru7Sb6 with RE=Dy, Ho, Er, and Tm show Curie-Weiss paramagnetism. Antiferromagnetic ordering occurs at 10.0(5), 5.1(5) and 4.0(5) K for Dy4Ru7Sb6, Ho4Ru7Sb6 and Er4Ru7Sb6, respectively, while Tm4Ru7Sb6 remains paramagnetic. Yb4Ru7Sb6 is an intermediate-valent compound with a reduced magnetic moment of 3.71(1) μB per Yb as compared to 4.54 μB for a free Yb3+ ion

AbstractGdCuMg has been synthesized by induction-melting of the elements in a sealed niobium ampoule followed by annealing in a muffle furnace. The sample was studied by powder and single crystal X-ray diffraction: ZrNiAl type, P6̅2m (a=749.2(4), c=403.3(1) pm), wR2=0.0242, 315 F2 values and 15 variables. Temperature dependent magnetic susceptibility measurements have revealed an experimental magnetic moment of 8.54(1) μB per Gd atom. GdCuMg orders ferromagnetically below TC=82.2(5) K and based on the magnetization isotherms it can be classified as a soft ferromagnet.

Abstract“Envelope crystals” collected during The Great Barrier Reef Expedition in May 1929 have been studied using low-temperature synchrotron single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The crystals are shown to be weddellite, with the largest content of zeolitic water reported to date. A new H2O site has been located within the crystal structure. Study of the crystals show that the end-member formula for weddellite should be reported as CaC2O4·(2.5 – x)H2O, where 0≤x≤ 0.25, instead of CaC2O4·(2H2O or CaC2O4·(2 + x )H2O. This is also the first report of weddellite occurring in a coral reef.
