Journal ArticleDOI
Rietveld analysis of powder neutron diffraction data displaying anisotropic crystallite size broadening
TL;DR: In this article, a modified function for the peak full width at half maximum has been evaluated for polycrystalline Ni(OD)2, which resulted in significantly better agreement between observed and calculated profiles (the weighted residual Rw.p decreased from 14.1 to 8.5%).
Journal ArticleDOI
Superconductivity in the system (Y, Ca, Sr) (Ba, Sr)2 (Cu3−z(SO4)zOx
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of partial substitution of Ba for Sr on the superconducting transition in the sulphate containing materials [Y0.74Ca0.16Sr0.12]Sr2Cu2,78(SO4)0.22O6.
Journal ArticleDOI
Crystal structure and electrical characterisation of Bi2NbO5F: an Aurivillius oxide fluoride
TL;DR: In this article, structural characterisation of Bi2NbO5F was performed using X-ray and neutron powder diffraction and electron diffraction, and structural refinements showed that the material adopts a distorted structure with significant rotation of the octahedra around two axes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis and structural characterisation of a new perovskite phase, Ba4CaCu3O8.61
Colin Greaves,Peter R. Slater +1 more
TL;DR: A phase of composition Ba4CaCu3O8.61 has been synthesised and its structure determined using time-of-flight powder neutron diffraction as mentioned in this paper, which is closely related to the recently reported compound, Ba4YCu3O 8.61.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structural and magnetic characterisation of the pyrochlores Bi2−xFex(FeSb)O7, (x=0.1, 0.2, 0.3), Nd1.8Fe0.2(FeSb)O7 and Pr2(FeSb)O7
Mariana J. Whitaker,José F. Marco,Frank J. Berry,Christina Raith,Elizabeth Blackburn,Colin Greaves +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, four antimony-containing pyrochlores with compositions Bi2−xFex(FeSb)O7 have been synthesized, their structural properties examined, and compared to that of the antimony phase Pr2(FeO7 which was structurally characterised for the first time.
