Phase equilibrium study of the Y-Ba-Ni-O system and structural characterization of the new quasi-one-dimensional oxide Y sub 2 BaNiO sub 5

Journal Article · · Journal of Solid State Chemistry; (USA)
Phase equilibria in the Y{sub 2}O{sub 3}-BaO-NiO system were studied in the temperature range 1,000-1,350{degree}C in air. In addition to previously reported compositions, the new phase Y{sub 2}BaNiO{sub 5} was identified. Conditions for synthesis and stability of Y{sub 2}BaNiO{sub 5} are reported, as well as the dependence of oxygen nonstoichiometry and lattice parameters on conditions of preparation. Single crystals were obtained by rf induction melting and the structure was refined by four circle x-ray diffraction. Y{sub 2}BaNiO{sub 5} is isomorphous with Nd{sub 2}BaNiO{sub 5} and consists of isolated, highly compressed chains of corner-shared NiO{sub 6} octahedra.
