Synthesis and Rietveld refinements of new ceramics Sr_2CaFe_2WO_9 and Sr_2PbFe+2TeO_9 perovskites

摘要

Ceramics of Sr2CaFe2WO9 and Sr2PbFe2TeO9 double perovskites have been prepared in polycrystalline form by solid-state technique, in the air. The crystalline structure was analyzed using X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) at room temperature. Rietveld analysis of XRPD) patterns show that both compounds adopt a tetragonal structure with space group I4/m, with unit cell parameters a = 5.5453(1) angstrom, c = 7.8389(1) angstrom for Sr(2)CaFc(2)WO(9), and a = 5.5994(15) angstrom, c = 7.8979(30) angstrom for Sr2PbFe2TeO9. A certain degree of anti-site disordering of W and/or Te and Fe on the B -sites have been detected, indicating the presence of a partial amount of W and/or Te at Fe positions and vice versa.
