Abstract

Angle-dispersive x-ray-diffraction and x-ray-absorption near-edge structure measurements have been performed on CaWO{sub 4} and SrWO{sub 4} up to pressures of approximately 20 GPa. Both materials display similar behavior in the range of pressures investigated in our experiments. As in the previously reported case of CaWO{sub 4}, under hydrostatic conditions SrWO{sub 4} undergoes a pressure-induced scheelite-to-fergusonite transition around 10 GPa. Our experimental results are compared to those found in the literature and are further supported by ab initio total-energy calculations, from which we also predict the instability at larger pressures of the fergusonite phases against an orthorhombic structure with space group Cmca. Finally, a linear relationship between the charge density in the AO{sub 8} polyhedra of ABO{sub 4} scheelite-related structures and their bulk modulus is discussed and used to predict the bulk modulus of other materials, like hafnon.

Controllable synthesis of hierarchical nanostructures of CaWO{sub 4} and SrWO{sub 4} via a facile low-temperature route

Journal Article Chen, Z. ; Gong, Q. ; Zhu, J. ; ... - Materials Research Bulletin

CaWO{sub 4} and SrWO{sub 4} nanostructures have been synthesized via a simple microemulsion-mediated route. With careful control of the fundamental experimental parameters including the concentration of reactants, the reaction time and the temperature, the products with different morphologies of dumbbell, coral, rod and dendrite have been obtained, respectively. The possible formation mechanism of these unique morphologies has been proposed based on surfactant self-assembly under different experimental conditions. The as-synthesized CaWO{sub 4} samples with various morphologies exhibit different photoluminescence properties. X-ray powder diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, field-emission scanning electron microscopy, and luminescence spectroscopy were used to characterize these products.

Synthesis and magnetic properties of the high-pressure scheelite-type GdCrO{sub 4} polymorph

Journal Article Dos santos-Garcia, A.J., E-mail: adossant@quim.ucm.es ; Climent-Pascual, E. ; Gallardo-Amores, J.M. ; ... - Journal of Solid State Chemistry

The scheelite-type polymorph of GdCrO{sub 4} has been obtained from the corresponding zircon-type compound under high pressure and temperature conditions, namely 4 GPa and 803 K. The crystal structure has been determined by X-ray powder diffraction. This GdCrO{sub 4} scheelite crystallizes in a tetragonal symmetry with space group I4{sub 1}/a (No. 88, Z=4), a=5.0501(1) A, c=11.4533(2) A and V=292.099(7) A{sup 3}. The thermal decomposition leads to the formation of the zircon-polymorph as intermediate phase at 773 K to end in the corresponding GdCrO{sub 3} distorted perovskite-structure at higher temperatures.

High pressure phase transitions in scheelite structured fluoride: ErLiF{sub 4}

Journal Article Garg, Nandini ; Mishra, A.K. ; Poswal, H.K. ; ... - Journal of Solid State Chemistry

Our synchrotron based angle dispersive x-ray diffraction studies on scheelite structured ErLiF{sub 4} show that it undergoes two phase transitions, at ~11.5 and ~15.5 GPa to lower symmetry monoclinic phases, before becoming (irreversibly) amorphous at ~28 GPa. The first high pressure phase transformation to the fergusonite structure (space group I2/a) is found to be of thermodynamically second order. The second high pressure phase could be fitted to the P2/c space group, but detailed analysis rules out the wolframite structure (P2/c space group), common to many scheelite compounds under high pressures. We also suggest that despite the ionic character of themore »« less

Structural, vibrational and luminescence properties of the (1−x)CaWO{sub 4}−xCdWO{sub 4} system

In the present work, we investigate the structural, microstructural, vibrational and luminescence properties of the system (1−x)CaWO{sub 4}−xCdWO{sub 4} with x ranging between 0 and 1. Polycrystalline samples were elaborated using a coprecipitation technique followed by thermal treatment at 1000 °C. The samples were then characterized using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, Raman spectroscopy and luminescence analyses. X-ray diffraction profile analyses using Rietveld method showed that two kinds of solid solutions Ca{sub 1−x}Cd{sub x}WO{sub 4} having scheelite and wolframite structures, with respectively tetragonal and monoclinic crystal cells, were observed, with a biphasic system for compositions x=0.6 and 0.7.
