Series of compositions Bi2(M′xM1−x)4O9 (M′, M=Al, Ga, Fe; 0≤x≤1) with mullite-type crystal structure: Synthesis, characterization and 18O/16O exchange experiment

Journal of Solid State Chemistry, 2010

Series of compositions Bi 2 (M 0 x M 1 À x) 4 O 9 with x ¼ 0.0, 0.1,y, 1.0 and M 0 /M ¼Ga/Al, Fe/Al and Fe/Ga were synthesized by dissolving appropriate amounts of corresponding metal nitrate hydrates in glycerine, followed by gelation, calcination and final heating at 800 1C for 24 h. The new compositions with M 0 / M¼ Ga/Al form solid-solution series, which are isotypes to the two other series M 0 /M¼ Fe/Al and Fe/Ga. The XRD data analysis yielded in all cases a linear dependence of the lattice parameters related on x. Rietveld structure refinements of the XRD patterns of the new compounds, Bi 2 (Ga x Al 1 À x) 4 O 9 reveal a preferential occupation of Ga in tetrahedral site (4 h). The IR absorption spectra measured between 50 and 4000 cm À 1 of all systems show systematic shifts in peak positions related to the degree of substitution. Samples treated in 18 O 2 atmosphere (16 h at 800 1C, 200 mbar, 95% 18 O 2) for 18 O/ 16 O isotope exchange experiments show a well-separated IR absorption peak related to the M-18 O cM vibration, where O c denotes the common oxygen of two tetrahedral type MO 4 units. The intensity ratio of M-18 O c /M-16 O c IR absorption peaks and the average crystal sizes were used to estimate the tracer diffusion coefficients of polycrystalline Bi 2 Al 4 O 9 (D ¼ 2 Â 10 À 22 m 2 s À 1), Bi 2 Fe 4 O 9 (D ¼ 5 Â 10 À 21 m 2 s À 1), Bi 2 (Ga/Al) 4 O 9 (D ¼2 Â 10 À 21 m 2 s À 1) and Bi 2 Ga 4 O 9 (D ¼2 Â 10 À 20 m 2 s À 1).

On the Phase Transitions of Bi2Te4O11

Journal of Solid State Chemistry, 1998

The polymorphic phase transitions of Bi 2 Te 4 O 11 have been investigated using X-ray powder diffraction (XPD), selected area electron diffraction (SAED), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) in the 25-730°C range. The metastable cubic modification, which forms under fast crystalization of the Bi 2 Te 4 O 11 melt, has fluorite-type structure. Each cation position is filled with bismuth and tellurium in 1/3-2/3 ratio, while the anion positions are occupied by oxygen in 11/12 site occupancy (evenly distributed vacancy), representing a structure with no chemical ordering. The first process in the transition of cubic phase is cation ordering along a cubic [1 1 1] direction. The ordering process has a small activation energy, but the structure reordering itself is exotherm. The final stage of this ordering is the separation of the cations into the triplets of planes forming two types of structural slabs with composition Bi 2 Te 2 O 7 and TeO 2. Every third plane contains only Te, and the first two are occupied by equal amounts, of Bi and Te with random distribution. The oxygen content is lower than what would be expected based on the available anion sites in the ideal fluorite structure, and these positions are populated by oxygen in a statistical (random) distribution. The next step of transition is the ordering of oxygen vacancy. The oxygen vacancy is concentrated at the Bi-containing layers in accordance with the fluorite-based structural model of the Bi 2 Te 2 O 7 layers. The result is monoclinic Bi 2 Te 4 O 11 with P2 1 /n symmetry. There are, however, several grains in the sample that show the coexistence of an exclusively cation-ordered, fluorite-type structure and that of Rossel's model. This indicates an intermediate or alternative stage of the phase transition, in which the Bi 2 Te 2 O 7 and TeO 2 slabs are already formed, but the oxygen coordination in the TeO 2 layer is still fluorite-type hexahedral. The formation of the rutile-type TeO 2 slabs can be a next step of the transition. The boundary between the two observed phases is irregular. The solid state first order phase transformation can be assumed at the grain boundaries.

New Structural and Electrical Data on Bi–Mo Mixed Oxides with a Structure Based on [Bi12O14]∞Columns

Journal of Solid State Chemistry, 1999

We recently described a new family of oxide anion conductors with a structure based on [Bi 12 O 14 ] columns (J. Solid. State Chem. 122, 394 (1996)). The parent compound of this series can be formulated as Bi 26 Mo 10 O 69 and formation of a solid solution, in the Bi 2 O 3-MoO 3 binary system, in the range 2.574 Bi/Mo42.77 was established. The stoichiometry of this series was questioned by R. Enjalbert et al. (J. Solid State Chem. 131, 236 (1997)), but confirmed by D. J. Buttrey et al. (Mater. Res. Bull. 32, 947 (1997)). The first part of this paper is devoted to a refutation criticisms by R. Enjalbert et al. In the second part, a comparison with other Bi 2 O 3-based oxide anion conductors enables us to propose an iono-covalent description of this novel structure type, taking into account all the structural and electrical features, especially new neutron powder diffraction refinement and conductivity measurements under variable oxygen partial pressures.
