Crystal structure of chain silicate Cs₃LuSi₃O₉.

ABSTRACT: A caesium lutetium(III) silicate, Cs₃LuSi₃O₉, was synthesized by heating a pelletized mixture of Cs₂CO₃, Lu₂O₃ and SiO₂ at 1273 K. Single crystals of the title compound were grown in a melted area of the pellet. Cs₃LuSi₃O₉ is a single-chain silicate (ortho-rhom-bic space group Pna2₁) with a chain periodicity of six and is isostructural with Cs₃ RE ^IIIGe₃O₉ (RE = Pr, Nd and Sm-Yb). The two symmetry-dependent [Si₆O₁₈]^12- chains in the unit cell lie parallel to the [011] direction. The Lu³⁺ ions are octa-hedrally coordinated by O atoms of the silicate chains, generating a three-dimensional framework. Cs⁺ ions are located in the voids in the framework.

The layer silicate Cs2SnIVSi6O15.

Project description:Single crystals of Cs2SnSi6O15, dicaesium tin(IV) hexa-silicate, were serendipitously obtained from a CsCl/NaCl flux at 923 K, starting from mixtures of CaO, SnO and TeO2 in a closed silica ampoule. The crystal structure of Cs2SnSi6O15 is constructed from {Si6O15}6- layers extending parallel to (101), and CsI cations with a coordination number of eleven as well as isolated [SnO6] octa-hedra situated between the silicate layers. Each of the nine different SiO4 tetra-hedra in the silicate layer has a connectedness of Q 3 (three bridging and one terminal O atom), which leads to the formation of five- and eight-membered rings. The same type of silicate layer is found in the crystal structure of the mineral zeravshanite. Comparison with other silicates of the type Cs2 M IVSi6O15 (M IV = Ti, Zr, Th, U) revealed a klassengleiche group-subgroup relationship of index 2 between Cs2ZrSi6O15 (Z = 6, space group C2/m) and Cs2SnSi6O15 (Z = 12, space group I2/c).

Crystal structure of dicaesium strontium hexa-cyanidoferrate(II), Cs2Sr[Fe(CN)6], from laboratory X-ray powder data.

Project description:Ferrocyanides with general formula A I xB II y [Fe(CN)6], where A and B are cations, are thought to accept many substitutions on the A and B positions. In this communication, the synthesis and crystal structure of Cs2Sr[Fe(CN)6] are reported. The latter was obtained from K2Ba[Fe(CN)6] particles, put in contact with caesium and strontium ions. Hence, a simultaneous ion-exchange mechanism (Cs for K, Sr for Ba) occurs to yield Cs2Sr[Fe(CN)6]. The synthesis protocol shows that K2BaFe(CN)6 particles can be used for the simultaneous trapping of radioactive caesium and strontium nuclides in water streams. Cs2Sr[Fe(CN)6] adopts the cryolite structure type and is isotypic with the known compound Cs2Na[Mn(CN)6] [dicaesium sodium hexa-cyanidomanganate(III)]. The octa-hedrally coordinated Sr and Fe sites both are located on inversion centres, and the eightfold-coordinated Cs site on a general position.

Tricaesium citrate monohydrate, Cs3C6H5O7·H2O: crystal structure and DFT comparison.

Project description:The crystal structure of tricaesium citrate monohydrate, 3Cs+·C6H5O73-·H2O, has been solved and refined using laboratory X-ray single-crystal diffraction data, and optimized using density functional techniques. This compound is isostructural to the K+ and Rb+ compounds with the same formula. The three independent Cs cations are eight-, eight-, and seven-coordinate, with bond-valence sums of 0.91, 1.22, and 1.12 valence units. The coordination polyhedra link into a three-dimensional framework. The hy-droxy group forms the usual S(5) hydrogen bond with the central carboxyl-ate group, and the water mol-ecule acts as a donor in two strong hydrogen bonds.

Crystal structure, bandgap, photoluminescence and resistivity properties of double perovskite Cs2AgBiCl6 single crystal and its thin film.

Project description:Lead-free Cs2AgBiCl6 double perovskite (Cs2AgBiCl6-DP) material, as a substitute for lead halide perovskite materials, has the advantages of environmental friendliness and high stability and has attracted much attention. However, the photoluminescence and conductive properties of Cs2AgBiCl6-DP have not been well studied. In this study, we prepared Cs2AgBiCl6-DP single crystals (SCs) by coordination-dissolution and coordination-precipitation method. Single- and powder-XRD, SEM, EDS, XPS, and EPR characterization were performed to confirm the structural characteristics of Cs2AgBiCl6-DP SCs. The Tauc diagram based on UV-visible (UV-vis) absorption spectroscopy reveals that the optical bandgap of Cs2AgBiCl6-DP SCs is extrapolated to 2.51 eV. Steady-state fluorescence spectra and time-resolved fluorescence spectra show that Cs2AgBiCl6-DP SCs has four fluorescence peaks entered at 443, 615, 650 and 723 nm and a fluorescence lifetime of about 4.16 ns. Cs2AgBiCl6/PMMA thin films were prepared by spin coating suspension (Cs2AgBiCl6 DP and PMMA in acetone solvent). The intensity of emission peak increases with the increase of light intensity at 369 nm. The intensity of emission peak located at 576 nm decreases with increasing incidence wavelength (from 369 to 454 nm) at 10 W m-2. The emission intensity remains basically unchanged under continuous illumination for 9 hours at 369 nm at 5 W m-2, which indicates that the Cs2AgBiCl6-DP thin film has good stability. In addition, the resistivity and block resistance show a negative exponential change with increasing temperature. These results provide some interesting ideas for the fields of photoluminescence and thermistors.

Crystal structure of the [(THF)Cs(μ-η5:η5-Cp')3Yb] n oligomer.

Project description:The green compound poly[(tetra-hydro-furan)-tris-[μ-η5:η5-1-(tri-methyl-sil-yl)cyclo-penta-dien-yl]caesium(I)ytterbium(II)], [CsYb(C8H13Si)3(C4H8O)] n or [(THF)Cs(μ-η5:η5-Cp')3YbII] n was synthesized by reduction of a red THF solution of (C5H4SiMe3)3YbIII with excess Cs metal and identified by X-ray diffraction. The compound crystallizes as a two-dimensional array of hexa-gons with alternating CsI and YbII ions at the vertices and cyclo-penta-dienyl groups bridging each edge. This, based off the six-electron cyclo-penta-dienyl rings occupying three coordination positions, gives a formally nine-coordinate tris-(cyclo-penta-dien-yl) coordination environment to Yb and the Cs is ten-coordinate due to the three cyclo-penta-dienyl rings and a coordinated mol-ecule of THF. The complex comprises layers of Cs3Yb3 hexa-gons with THF ligands and Me3Si groups in between the layers. The Yb-C metrical parameters are consistent with a 4f 14 YbII electron configuration.

Glassy thermal conductivity in Cs3Bi2I6Cl3 single crystal.

Project description:As the periodic atomic arrangement of a crystal is made to a disorder or glassy-amorphous system by destroying the long-range order, lattice thermal conductivity, κL, decreases, and its fundamental characteristics changes. The realization of ultralow and unusual glass-like κL in a crystalline material is challenging but crucial to many applications like thermoelectrics and thermal barrier coatings. Herein, we demonstrate an ultralow (~0.20 W/m·K at room temperature) and glass-like temperature dependence (2-400 K) of κL in a single crystal of layered halide perovskite, Cs3Bi2I6Cl3. Acoustic phonons with low cut-off frequency (20 cm-1) are responsible for the low sound velocity in Cs3Bi2I6Cl3 and make the structure elastically soft. While a strong anharmonicity originates from the low energy and localized rattling-like vibration of Cs atoms, synchrotron X-ray pair-distribution function evidence a local structural distortion in the Bi-halide octahedra and Cl vacancy. The hierarchical chemical bonding and soft vibrations from selective sublattice leading to low κL is intriguing from lattice dynamical perspective as well as have potential applications.

Crystal structure of Cs2GdNb6Cl15O3 in the structural evolution of niobium oxychlorides with octa-hedral Nb6-cluster units.

Project description:Cs2GdNb6Cl15O3, dicaesium gadolinium hexa-niobium penta-deca-chloride trioxide, was synthesized by solid-state reactions starting from a stoichiometric mixture of CsCl, Gd2O3, Nb, NbCl5, and Nb2O5. The crystal structure is based on octa-hedral Nb6 cluster units (point group symmetry 3.2) with composition [(Nb6Cli 9Oi 3)Cla 6]5- where i and a denote inner and outer ligands. Cs2GdNb6Cl15O3 exhibits 14 valence electrons per cluster unit. The cluster units are linked to each other by CsI and GdIII atoms, whereby CsI (site symmetry 3..) is 12-coordinated by six Cli and six Cla ligands belonging to six neighboring cluster units and GdIII (site symmetry 3.2) is 9-coordinated by three Oi and six Cli ligands belonging to three adjacent cluster units. The arrangement of cluster units corresponds to a stacking of …AA'A… layers along [001]. Cs2GdNb6Cl15O3 is isotypic with Cs2UNb6Cl15O3.

Crystal structure of AlFe0.95.

Project description:Three B2-type inter-metallic AlFe1 - δ phases (0.18 < δ < 0.05) in the Al-Fe binary system were synthesized by smelting and high temperature sinter-ing methods. The exact crystal structure for δ = 0.05 was refined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The amount of vacancy defects at the Fe atom sites was obtained by refining the corresponding site occupancy factor, converging to the chemical formula AlFe0.95, with a structure identical to that of ideal AlFe models inferred from powder X-ray or neutron diffraction patterns.

Stability of Cs2NaBiBr6 and Cs2NaBiCl6.

Project description:Bismuth-based halide perovskites are nontoxic alternatives to widely studied lead-based perovskites for optoelectronic applications. Here, we synthesized Cs2NaBiCl6 thin films and attempted to synthesize Cs2NaBiBr6 using physical vapor deposition. While Cs2NaBiCl6 forms a stable cubic structure with a 3.4 eV band gap and could be synthesized successfully, Cs2NaBiBr6 does not form and is unstable with respect to dissociation into Cs3-xNaxBi2Br9 and Cs3-xNaxBiBr6. Furthermore, the close X-ray diffraction patterns of Cs3-xNaxBi2Br9 and Cs2NaBiBr6 raise doubts about the previous reports of the latter's formation based on X-ray diffraction alone.
