After studying more than 100 different samples of calaverite Au1-pAgpTe2 (p 2CO3 resisted any attempt for a precise structural analysis. The appearance of satellite reflections was noted on single crystal diffractograms which led to the generalisation of t ...
A dense post-rutile titanium dioxide (TiO2) phase was discovered in shocked garnet gneisses from the Ries crater by reflected-light microscopy, laser rnicroRaman spectroscopy and micro-beam X-ray diffraction. The Raman spectrum consists of nine bands at wa ...
The single-crystal investigation of the self-hosting sigma-structure of beta-tantalum (beta-Ta) at 120 K (low-temperature, LT, structure) and at 293 K (RT-I before cooling and RT-II after cooling and rewarming; RT represents room temperature) shows that th ...
In this paper, we intend to gain an understanding of the interaction of light with microstructures. Measurements of amplitude and phase in the diffracted field close to gratings using a heterodyne scanning probe are presented. Coherent light diffracted by ...
The effect of magnesium addition on the phase formation, microstructure and electric and ferroelectric properties of LiNbO3 thin films prepared through polymeric precursors was analyzed. By X ray diffraction no secondary phase was observed with the increas ...
The room temperature structure (a-form) of the organic compound p-chlorobenzamide, C7H6ClNO, can be described as a classical three-dimensional periodic superstructure (alpha(s)) and also as a commensurately modulated structure (alpha(m)) in (3 + 1)-dimensi ...
Incommensurate structure of Hexamethylenetetramine suberate (C6H12N4)(HOOC-(CH2)6-COOH) has been solved from single crystal x-ray diffraction data. A molecular dynamics simulation of this system was carried out from 15 K to 580K. A second-generation consis ...
HMT-C11 belongs to the family of adducts formed by the cocrystallization of N-4(CH2)(6) molecules ( hexamethylenetetramine or HMT) and aliphatic dicarboxylic acids HOOC(CH2)(n-2)COOH with 5 less than or equal to n less than or equal to 13 (Cn). The adducts ...
A natural shockwave event led to the formation of a new crystalline polymorph of carbon in gneisses from the Popigai crater, Russia. The new species occupies the interior of a multiphase assemblage and is entirely enveloped by lonsdaleite and graphite. Pol ...
The low temperature (LT) modification of Cs3Bi2I9 has been refined to R(F) = 0.055 on the basis of X-ray diffraction measurements at T = 130 K from a twin crystal with six fractions connected by 3-fold axis and m-planes symmetry operations. Data were colle ...
