A new oxytelluride: Perovskite and CsCl intergrowth in Ba3Yb2O5Te
Abstract
The new oxytelluride Ba3Yb2O5Te was obtained from an alkaline earth flux. Ba3Yb2O5Te crystallizes in the tetragonal space group P4/mmm (#123), with a=4.3615(3) Å and c=11.7596(11) angstrom, Z=1. The structure combines two distinct building blocks, a Ba2Yb2O5 perovskite-like double layer with square bipyramidal coordination of the ytterbium ions, and a CsCl-type BaTe layer. Short range magnetic order is apparent at below 5 K, with the magnetic behavior above this temperature dominated by crystal field effects. The structure may be considered as an analog to the Ruddlesden-Popper phases, where the NaCl-type layer has been replaced by the CsCl-type layer. Finally, the two-dimensional magnetic behavior is expected based on the highly anisotropic nature of the structure.
