Abstract
Three polymorphs were found to exist for Cs3ScF6 in the room temperature range of up to 280 °C. Two phase transitions were identified by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analyses at 92 and 196 °C upon heating. In situ high-temperature solid-state NMR, synchrotron and laboratory X-ray diffraction, and neutron powder diffraction were used for structural characterization. The crystal structure of the high-temperature (γ) phase adopts the cubic Fm3̅m (Z = 4) space group with a = 9.6048(7) Å at 250 °C. The other two polymorphs, α and β, have tetragonal symmetry with space groups I41/a (Z= 80) and I4/m (Z= 10), and lattice parameters are a = 21.15222(6) Å, c = 38.21648(8) Å and a = 15.0401(2) Å, c = 9.6341(2) Å at RT and 150 °C, respectively.
期刊介绍:
The aim of Crystal Growth & Design is to stimulate crossfertilization of knowledge among scientists and engineers working in the fields of crystal growth, crystal engineering, and the industrial application of crystalline materials.
Crystal Growth & Design publishes theoretical and experimental studies of the physical, chemical, and biological phenomena and processes related to the design, growth, and application of crystalline materials. Synergistic approaches originating from different disciplines and technologies and integrating the fields of crystal growth, crystal engineering, intermolecular interactions, and industrial application are encouraged.
