Structural study of the high-pressure antiferroelectric phase of CsH/sub 2/PO/sub 4/
Abstract
A three-dimensional neutron diffraction study has been carried out on the pressure-induced antiferroelectric phase of CsH/sub 2/PO/sub 4/. At 100.7/sup 0/K and a hydrostatic pressure of 3.6 kbar, the unit cell parameters are a = 15.625(9), b = 6.254(2), c = 4.886(1) A, ..beta.. = 108.08(3)/sup 0/ and Z = 4. Atomic parameters were determined using full-matrix least-squares methods which yield final agreement indices: R(F/sup 2/) = 0.0715, R/sub w/(F/sup 2/) = 0.0807 and S = 2.13. The structure is nearly consistent with the monoclinic space group P2/sub 1//a but refinement in P2/sub 1/ yields a slightly better fit. The structure is markedly different from those of the paraelectric and ferroelectric phases with large relative displacements (nearly 1 A) of Cs/sup +1/ and PO/sub 4//sup -3/ groups in the x-z plane. Hydrogens bonding in b-chains, which are disordered in the paraelectric phase, show antiferroelectric order.
