Abstract
The lattice parameters of three perovskite-related oxides have been measured with high precision at room temperature. An accuracy of the order of 10(-5) has been achieved by applying a sophisticated high-resolution X-ray diffraction technique which is based on the modified Bond method. The results on cubic SrTiO(3) [a = 3.905268 (98) Å], orthorhombic DyScO(3) [a = 5.442417 (54), b = 5.719357 (52) and c = 7.904326 (98) Å], and orthorhombic NdGaO(3) [a = 5.428410 (54), b = 5.498407 (55) and c = 7.708878 (95) Å] are discussed in view of possible systematic errors as well as non-stoichiometry in the crystals.
期刊介绍:
Acta Crystallographica Section B: Structural Science, Crystal Engineering and Materials publishes scientific articles related to the structural science of compounds and materials in the widest sense. Knowledge of the arrangements of atoms, including their temporal variations and dependencies on temperature and pressure, is often the key to understanding physical and chemical phenomena and is crucial for the design of new materials and supramolecular devices. Acta Crystallographica B is the forum for the publication of such contributions. Scientific developments based on experimental studies as well as those based on theoretical approaches, including crystal-structure prediction, structure-property relations and the use of databases of crystal structures, are published.
