SUPERFLIP– a computer program for the solution of crystal structures by charge flipping in arbitrary dimensions

TL;DR: SUPERFLIP is a computer program that can solve crystal structures from diffraction data using the recently developed charge-flipping algorithm and has been successfully compiled and tested on a variety of operating systems.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dynamics of the n‐decylammonium chains in the perovskite‐type layer structure compound (C10H21NH3)2CdCl4

TL;DR: In this paper, the two structural phase transitions in the perovskite layer structure compound (C10H21NH3)2CdCl4 at Tc1=35°C and Tc2=39°C were studied by x-ray diffractional, calorimetric and dielectric measurements, proton NMR spin-lattice relaxation and second moment investigations, 35Cl and 14N quadrupole resonance spectroscopy as well as group theoretical considerations.
Journal ArticleDOI

2‐cyclooctylamino‐5‐nitropyridine, a new nonlinear optical crystal with orthorhombic symmetry

TL;DR: In this paper, a nonlinear optical crystal with point group symmetry mm2 has been grown by a temperature difference solution growth technique, and its linear and non-linear optical properties have been investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phase transitions in disordered lead iron niobate: X-ray and synchrotron radiation diffraction experiments

TL;DR: In this paper, the symmetry of the phases in disordered perovskite has been investigated using X-ray and synchrotron radiation, showing that the compound is a monoclinic ferroelectric at 293 K, undergoes a structural transition to another tetragonal state at about 355 K and finally transforms into a cubic form at approximately 376 K.
