Abstract

Here, the structural evolution of lanthanide A₂TiO₅ (A = Dy, Gd, Yb, and Er) at high pressure is investigated using synchrotron X-ray diffraction. The effects of A-site cation size and of the initial structure are systematically examined by varying the composition of the isostructural lanthanide titanates, and the structure of dysprosium titanate polymorphs (orthorhombic, hexagonal and cubic), respectively. All samples undergo irreversible high pressure phase transformations, but with different onset pressures depending on the initial structure. While individual phase exhibits different phase transformation histories, all samples commonly experience a sluggish transformation to a defect cotunnite-like (Pnma) phase for a certain pressure range. Orthorhombic Dy₂TiO₅ and Gd₂TiO₅ form P2₁am at pressures below 9 GPa and Pnma above 13 GPa. Pyrochlore-type Dy₂TiO₅ and Er₂TiO₅ as well as defect-fluorite-type Yb₂TiO₅ form Pnma at ~ 21 GPa, followed by Im3¯m. Hexagonal Dy₂TiO₅ forms Pnma directly, although a small amount of remnants of hexagonal Dy₂TiO₅ is observed even at the highest pressure (~ 55 GPa) reached, indicating a kinetic limitations in the hexagonal Dy₂TiO₅ phase transformations at high pressure. Decompression of these materials leads to different metastable phases. Most interestingly, a high pressure cubic X-type phase (Im3¯m) is confirmed using highresolution transmission electron microscopy onmore »« less

Crystal structures of orthorhombic, hexagonal, and cubic compounds of the Sm{sub (x)}Yb{sub (2−x)}TiO{sub 5} series

Journal Article Aughterson, Robert D., E-mail: roa@ansto.gov.au ; Australian Centre for Microscopy and Microanalysis, The University of Sydney, NSW 2006 ; Lumpkin, Gregory R., E-mail: grl@ansto.gov.au ; ... - Journal of Solid State Chemistry

A series of single phase compounds with nominal stoichiometry Sm{sub (x)}Yb{sub (2−x)}TiO{sub 5} (x=2, 1.4, 1, 0.6, and 0) have been successfully fabricated to generate a range of crystal structures covering the most common polymorphs previously discovered in the Ln{sub 2}TiO{sub 5} series (Ln=lanthanides and yttrium). Four of the five samples have not been previously fabricated in bulk, single phase form so their crystal structures are refined and detailed using powder synchrotron and single crystal x-ray diffraction, neutron diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. Based on the phase information from diffraction data, there are four crystal structure types in this series;more »« less

Swift-heavy ion irradiation response and annealing behavior of A₂TiO₅ (A = Nd, Gd, and Yb)

Journal Article Park, Sulgiye ; Tracy, Cameron L. ; Zhang, Fuxiang ; ... - Journal of Solid State Chemistry

The structural responses of A₂BO₅ (A = Nd, Gd, and Yb; B = Ti) compositions irradiated by high-energy Au ions (2.2 GeV) were investigated using transmission electron microscopy, synchrotron X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy. The extent of irradiation-induced amorphization depends on the size of the A-site cation, with smaller lanthanides having less susceptibility to the accumulation of radiation damage. In the track-overlapping regime, complete amorphization is observed in all three compounds, despite the ability of Yb₂TiO₅ to incorporate a great deal of structural disorder into its initial defect-fluorite structure (Fm-3m). This is attributed to the high cation radius ratio (A:Bmore »« less

Novel complex ceramic oxides, Ln ₂ TiO ₅ (Ln = La, Sm, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, and Yb), for polyphase nuclear waste‐forms

Journal Article Aughterson, Robert D. ; Lumpkin, Gregory R. ; Smith, Katherine L. ; ... - Journal of the American Ceramic Society

Abstract As part of a broader study of ceramic nuclear waste‐forms, four different lanthanide titanates were fabricated; La _0.1 Sm _0.1 Gd _0.1 Tb _0.1 Dy _0.3 Ho _0.1 Er _0.2 YbTiO ₅ , Sm _0.3 Gd _0.3 Dy _0.3 Yb _1.1 TiO ₅ , Sm _0.1 Gd _0.4 Dy _0.4 Yb _1.1 TiO ₅ , and Sm _0.2 Gd _0.2 Dy _0.2 Yb _1.4 TiO ₅ . The aim was to produce single‐phase novel materials with cubic symmetry, capable of incorporating a wide variety of cations and with acceptable radiation tolerance. The chemistry flexibility and radiation tolerance are somemore »« less

Phase equilibria and crystal chemistry of the R-Cu-Ti-O systems (R=lanthanides and Y)

Journal Article Yang, Z ; Wong-Ng, W ; Kaduk, J A ; ... - Journal of Solid State Chemistry

As part of the study of interaction of the Ba{sub 2}RCu{sub 3}O{sub 6+z} (R=lanthanides and Y) superconductor with SrTiO{sub 3} buffer, phase equilibria of the subsystem, R{sub 2}O{sub 3}-TiO{sub 2}-CuO (R=Nd, Y, and Yb), have been investigated in air at 960 deg. C. While the phase relationships of the two phase diagrams with smaller R (Y and Yb) are similar, substantial differences were found in the Nd{sub 2}O{sub 3}-TiO{sub 2}-CuO system, partly due to different phase formation in the binary R{sub 2}O{sub 3}-TiO{sub 2} and R{sub 2}O{sub 3}-CuO systems.

Effect of the rate of cooling on the phase composition of rare-earth titanates

Journal Article Azimov, S A ; Gulamova, D D ; Suleimanov, S Kh - Inorg. Mater. (Engl. Transl.); (United States)

The purpose of this work was to investigate the effect of different regimes of quenching with cooling rates of approx. 10/sup 2/ and 10/sup 5/ K/sec on the phase composition of rare-earth mono- and dititanates, as well as the possibility of formation of glasses at the nonvariant points (eutectic and peritectic) of the binary systems TiO/sub 2/-Ln/sub 2/O/sub 3/ (Ln-La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb, Lu, Y, and Sc). For compounds of the types Ln/sub 2/TiO/sub 5/ and Ln/sub 2/Ti/sub 2/O/sub 7/ (Ln-La...Lu, Y, Sc) there is a tendency for a structure with amore »« less
