Structure of Graphite
H. P. Rooksby,E. G. Steward +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the validity of the observations made by Gibson and found that they could not be explained on the basis of the co-existence of the hexagonal and rhombohedral structures described by Lipson and Stokes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Compounds of the Structural Type of Calcium Titanate
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the structure of nickel oxide is not strictly cubic, but only pseudo-cubic, and that some of the X-ray reflexions can be explained by a small distortion of the cubic lattice along an octahedral axis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structure of Monoxides of some Transition Elements at Low Temperatures
N. C. Tombs,H. P. Rooksby +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the structure of nickel oxide is slightly deformed from face-centred cubic symmetry at a temperature of about 200° C. At − 180° C, the deformation vanishes.
Journal ArticleDOI
13. X-ray Diffraction and the Structure of Vitreous Solids — I
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that when crystalline substances are heated, the energy of vibration of the atoms in the lattice increases and with it the amplitude, and if the temperature is further increased, the vibration becomes greater than the restoring forces; atoms break free and the lattices are destroyed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structure of Nickel Oxide
TL;DR: The detection of extra reflexions in powder photographs of graphite has led to the description of a second crystalline form as discussed by the authors, which apparently co-exists with the structure established by Bernal.
