چکیده

Single-phase perovskites were formed in the (1−x)Ba(Zn1/3Nb2/3)O3–(x)La(Zn2/3Nb1/3)O3 system for compositions with 0.0 ≤ x ≤ 0.6. Although the stability of the trigonal ‘‘1:2’’ ordered structure of the Ba(Zn1/3Nb2/3)O3 end member is very limited (0.0 ≤ x < 0.05), low levels of lanthanum induce a transformation to a cubic, ‘‘1:1’’ ordered structure that has a broad range of homogeneity (0.05 ≤ x ≤ 0.6). Samples with x > 0.6 were comprised of La3NbO7, ZnO, and a perovskite with x = 0.6. The cubic 1:1 phases were fully ordered and no evidence was found for a compositionally segregated microstructure. These observations could not be reconciled in terms of a ‘‘space-charge’’ model; rather, they supported a charge-balanced, ‘‘random-site’’ structure for the 1:1 cation-ordered Ba(b*1/2b(1/2)O3 phases.

Octahedral tilting in cation-ordered perovskites--a group-theoretical analysis.

Group-theoretical methods are used to enumerate the structures of ordered perovskites, in which 1:2 and 1:3 ordering of B and B' cations is considered in combination with the ubiquitous BX6 (or B'X6) octahedral tilting. The cation ordering on the B-cation site is described by irreducible representations of the Pm3 m space group of the cubic aristotype: Lambda1 (k = 1/3,1/3,1/3) for the cation o...

Cation Ordering in Complex Oxides

Several recent papers have addressed the fundamental aspects of the stability and kinetics of ordering in complex oxides, and investigated systems where the properties are mediated by the degree of order. Cation ordering reactions have been shown to induce large alterations in the dielectric, ferroelectric, magnetic, and electronic response of many complex oxides. The majority of the cited publ...

Transformations on Dependency Graphs :

Dependency graphs are used to model data and control ow in hardware and software design. In a transformational design approach, optimization and re nement transformations are used to transform dependency-graph-based speci cations at higher abstraction levels to those at lower abstraction levels. In this dissertation, we investigate the formal speci cation and mechanical veri cation of transform...

Transformations in High-level Synthesis: Formal Speciication and Eecient Mechanical Veriication

Dependency graphs are used to model data and control ow in hardware and software design. In high-level synthesis of hardware, optimization and re nement transformations are used to transform dependency-graph-based speci cations at the behavior level to dependency-graph-based implementations at the register-transfer level. Registertransfer-level implementations are mapped to gate-level hardware ...

In-situ neutron diffraction study of non-convergent cation ordering in the (Fe3O4)1-x(MgAl2O4)x spinel solid solution

Non-convergent cation ordering in the (Fe3O4)1-x(MgAl2O4)x solid solution was investigated using in-situ time-of-flight neutron powder diffraction. The approach to equilibrium in a sample with x = 0.75 was observed at 923 K by performing in-situ structure refinements at intervals of 5 min, and the ordering behavior was traced through the time-dependence of the lattice parameter, the cation-oxyg...

Ferromagnetic ordering in the organic radical cation salt BBDTA·Au(CN)2 at 8.2 K.

An organic radical cation salt, BBDTA·Au(CN)2, with a slipped π-stacking columnar structure and intercolumnar short contacts, shows ferromagnetic ordering at 8.2 K, the highest reported temperature among the BBDTA(+) cation salts.
