Calcium crystal structures, lattice parameters

In high radiation fields, the spinel crystal structure has been shown to change. The structure, while still cubic, becomes disordered with a reduction in lattice parameter. The disordered rock-salt structure has a smaller unit cell reflecting the more random occupation of the octahedral sites by both trivalent and divalent ions. Increased radiation damage results in the formation of completely amorphous spinels. Radial distribution functions (g(r)) of these amorphous phases have Al-0 and Mg-O radial distances that are different from equivalent crystalline phases. The Al-0 distance in the amorphous form is reduced from Al-O of 0.194nm in the crystalline phase to 0.18nm in the amorphous phase, while the Mg-O distance is increased (0.19nm in the crystal to 0.21 nm in the amorphous phase). Differences between the Al-O distances of crystalline and amorphous phases are a characteristic of both calcium and rare earth aluminates. [Pg.57]

It is proposed that the major nucleation mechanism in cast iron doping, known as inoculation, is the formation of sulfide species upon the addition of strong sulfide formers such as calcium, barium, cerium, or strontium. These sulfides possess lattice parameters very similar to the graphite crystal structure, serving as substrates for... [Pg.184]

Studies have continued on the intercalation of the alkaline-earth metals into lattices of the transition-metal sulphides. Calcium and strontium are intercalated into M0S2 from liquid ammonia solution. X-Ray data reveal a lowering of the crystal symmetry of the sulphide and an increase in the complexity of the structure on intercalation. The intercalation compounds begin to superconduct at ca 4 K (for Ca) and 5.6 K (for Sr), and they show considerable anisotropy with respect to the critical magnetic field. Calcium in liquid ammonia also intercalates with TiS2- Two Ca,TiS2 phases have been identified. The limits of the first are 0.03 0.50, for which a relationship between x and cell parameters a and c... [Pg.51]
