Abstract
Neutron powder diffraction was used to study the distribution of Co and Cr atoms over different lattice sites as well as the lattice parameters of sigma-phase compounds Co(100 - x)Cr(x) with x = 57.0, 62.7 and 65.8. From the diffractograms recorded in the temperature range of 4.2-300 K it was found for the five crystallographically independent sites that A (2a) and D (8i) are predominantly occupied by Co atoms, while sites B (4f), C (8i) and E (8j) mainly accommodate Cr atoms. The lattice parameters a and c exhibit linear temperature dependencies, with different expansion coefficients in the temperature ranges of 4.2-100 and 100-300 K.
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.
