Among the phases of SiO2 are alpha and beta cristobalites, which have a long and somewhat controversial history of proposed structural assignments and phase-transition mechanisms. Recently, Zhang and Scott found new indications that the…
Neutron and x-ray powder and single crystal synchrotron diffraction of CsyFe2-xSe2 show the presence of superstructure reflections with propagation vector k=[2/5, 1/5, 1] with respect to the average crystal structure I4/mmm (a = 4, c =…
The lattice properties at low temperatures of two samples of NdFeAsO1-xFx (x=0.05 and 0.25) have been examined in order to investigate possible structural phase transition that may occur in the optimally doped superconducting sample with…
The intermetallic $\tau_{11}$ Al$_4$Fe$_{1.7}$Si phase is of interest for high-temperature structural application due to its combination of low density and high strength. We determine the crystal structure of the $\tau_{11}$ phase through a…
The structure of CO adsorbates on the Rh(110) surface is studied at full coverage using first-principles techniques. The relative energies of different adsorbate geometries are determined by means of accurate structure optimizations. In…
The crystal structure of solid oxygen at low temperatures and at pressures up to 7 GPa is studied by theoretical calculations. In the calculations, the adiabatic potential of the crystal is approximated by a superposition of pair-potentials…
One account of two-dimensional (2D) structural transformations in 2D ferroelectrics predicts an evolution from a structure with Pnm2$_1$ symmetry into a structure with square P4/nmm symmetry and is consistent with experimental evidence,…
The transition temperature Tc~26 K of the recently discovered superconductor LaFeAs(O,F) has been demonstrated to be extremely sensitive to the lanthanide ion, reaching 55 K for the Sm containing oxypnictides. Therefore, it is important to…
With the development of electronic structure theory, a new class of materials - quantum ones has been recognized by the community. Traditionally, it has been believed that the properties of such compounds cannot be described within the…
The magnetic properties of $\alpha$-NaFeO$_2$ are studied by neutron diffraction and magnetization measurements. An ordered phase with spins aligned along the b$_hex$ axis exists at low temperatures (T < 4 K). At intermediate temperatures…
Based on a simple model for ordering of hexagons on square planar lattice, an attempt has been made to consider possible structure of C(_{60}) fullerite in its low temperature phase. It is shown that hexagons, imitating fullerens oriented…
Using an adapted Sn-flux growth technique we obtained comparatively large CeFeAsO single crystals of better quality than previously reported polycrystals or single crystals, as evidenced by much sharper anomalies at the structural and…
Cu(pz)$_2$(ClO$_4$)$_2$ (with pz denoting pyrazine C$_4$H$_4$N$_2$) is a two-dimensional spin-1/2 square-lattice antiferromagnet with $T_{\mathrm{N}}$ = 4.24 K. Due to a persisting focus on the low-temperature magnetic properties, its…
Structural studies on Dy-substituted La-2125 type superconductors have been carried out by neutron diffraction experiments at room temperature using a monochromatic neutron beam of wavelength lambda = 1.249 Angstroms. A series of samples…
The structural and magnetic properties of YVO3, NdVO3 and TbVO3 were investigated by single-crystal and powder neutron diffraction. YVO3 shows a structural phase transition at 200 K from an orthorhombic structure with the space group Pbnm…
