There is often a wide range of crystalline soHd solubiUty between end-member compositions. Additionally the ferroelectric and antiferroelectric Curie temperatures and consequent properties appear to mutate continuously with fractional cation substitution. Thus the perovskite system has a variety of extremely usehil properties. Other oxygen octahedra stmcture ferroelectrics such as lithium niobate [12031 -63-9] LiNbO, lithium tantalate [12031 -66-2] LiTaO, the tungsten bron2e stmctures, bismuth oxide layer stmctures, pyrochlore stmctures, and order—disorder-type ferroelectrics are well discussed elsewhere (4,12,22,23). 

The ternary Ge halides, MGeX3 (M = Rb, Cs X = Cl, Br, I) are polymorphic with various distorted perovskite-like (p. 963) structures which reflect the influence of the nonbonding pair of electrons on the Ge" centre. Thus, at room temperature, rhombohedral CsGel3 has three Ge-I at 275 pm and three at 327 pm whereas in the high-temperature cubic form (above 277°C) there are six Ge-I distances at 320 pm as a result of position changes of the Ge atoms (reversible order-disorder transition). Again, RbGel3 has a lemon-yellow, orthorhombic form below —92° an intermediate, bordeaux-red orthorhombic perovskite form (—92° to —52°) a black rhombohedral form (—52° to —29°) and... 

By heating the metal with appropriate oxides or carbonates of alkali or alkaline earth metals, a number of mixed oxides of Ru and Os have been made. They include NasOs Og, LifiOs Og and the ruthenites , M Ru 03, in all of which the metal is situated in octahedral sites of an oxide lattice. Ru (octahedral) has now also been established by Ru Mdssbauer spectroscopy as a common stable oxidation state in mixed oxides such as Na3Ru 04, Na4Ru2 07, and the ordered perovskite-type phases M Ln Ru Og. 

However, in the case of the perovskite even the application of sintering temperatures as high as 1200 °C did not result in a higher overall ionic conductivity. Since the total ionic conductivity is two orders of magnitude lower than the bulk conductivity in polycrystalline Li0 34La05] Ti 0294, an improvement by way of the preparation route is necessary rather than changes in the lattice by the addition of dopants,...

Catalytic combustion of diesel soot particulates over LaMnOs perovskite-type oxides prepared by malic acid method has been studied. In the LaMn03 catalyst, the partial substitution of alkali metal ions into A site enhanced the catalytic activity in the combustion of diesel soot particulates and the activity was shown in following order Cs>K>Na. In the LarxCs MnOj catalyst, the catalytic activity increased with an increase of X value and showed constant activity at the substitution of x>0.3... 

With respect to CO oxidation an activity order similar to that described above for CH4 combustion has been obtained. A specific activity enhancement is observed for Lai Co 1-973 that has provided a 10% conversion of CO already at 393 K, 60 K below the temperature required by LalMnl-973. This behavior is in line with literature reports on CO oxidation over lanthanum metallates with perovskite structures [17] indicating LaCoOs as the most active system. As in the case of CH4 combustion, calcination at 1373 K of LalMnl has resulted in a significant decrease of the catalytic activity. Indeed the activity of LalMnl-1373 is similar to those of Mn-substituted hexaaluminates calcined at 1573 K. Dififerently from the results of CH4 combustion tests no stability problems have been evidenced under reaction conditions for LalMnl-1373 possibly due to the low temperature range of CO oxidation experiments. Similar apparent activation energies have been calculated for all the investigated systems, ranging from 13 to 15 Kcal/mole, i.e almost 10 Kcal/mole lower than those calculated for CH4 oxidation. 

Catalysts include oxides, mixed oxides (perovskites) and zeolites [3]. The latter, transition metal ion-exchanged systems, have been shown to exhibit high activities for the decomposition reaction [4-9]. Most studies deal with Fe-zeolites [5-8,10,11], but also Co- and Cu-systems exhibit high activities [4,5]. Especially ZSM-5 catalysts are quite active [3]. Detailed kinetic studies, and those accounting for the influence of other components that may be present, like O2, H2O, NO and SO2, have hardly been reported. For Fe-zeolites mainly a first order in N2O and a zero order in O2 is reported [7,8], although also a positive influence of O2 has been found [11]. Mechanistic studies mainly concern Fe-systems, too [5,7,8,10]. Generally, the reaction can be described by an oxidation of active sites, followed by a removal of the deposited oxygen, either by N2O itself or by recombination, eqs. (2)-(4). 

A similar situation with changing oxidation state of Ru within a series of compounds was observed for the ordered perovskites BaLaMRuOe (M = Mg, Fe, Co, Ni, Zn) [115]. The measured isomer shifts in the range +0.06 to +0.13 mm s ...

The disordered structure can be stabilized to room temperature by inclusion of substitutional impurities on the In sites. Thus the oxide formed when Ga is substituted for In, Ba2(ln1 xGaJt-)205+s to form Galn defects has a disordered cubic perovskite structure even at room temperature for values of x between 0.25 and 0.5, and the similar Ba2iln1 vCox)205+3 with Coin defects has a disordered cubic perovskite structure at room temperature when x lies between 0.2 and 0.8. The defects present in the In sites hinder oxygen ordering during the timescale over which the samples cool from the... 

The same analysis can be applied to compounds with a more complex formula. For example, the oxide LaCoCL, which adopts the cubic perovskite structure, usually shows a large positive Seebeck coefficient, of the order of +700 jjlV K-1, when prepared in air (Hebert et al., 2007). This indicates that there are holes present in the material. The La ions have a fixed valence, La3+, hence the presence of holes must be associated with the transition-metal ion present. Previous discussion suggests that LaCo03 has become slightly oxidized to LaCoCL+j, and contains a population of Co4+ ions (Co3+ + h or Coc0)- Each added oxygen ion will generate two holes, equivalent to two Co4+ ...
