Structure and properties of tris(tetramethylammonium) nonabromodiarsenate(III), [(CH3)4N]3[As2Br9]
2007
The new tetramethylammonium bromoarsenate(III) crystal [(CH3)4N]3 [As2Br9] has been synthesized and its phase behaviour established by differential scanning calorimetry and dilatometry. Three phase transitions are found: at 346/346 K , at 165/171 K and at 157/165 K on cooling/heating. Single-crystal x-ray diffraction studies of phases I (at 370 K) and II (at 298 K) have shown that the structure comprises discrete [As2Br9]3− anions and disordered [(CH3)4N]+ cations. Phase II crystallizes in the polar space group P31c; its polar nature was confirmed by pyroelectric measurements. Phase I has higher symmetry, P63mc or . Dielectric dispersion measurements revealed a relaxation process in the cry…
The phase situation and ferroelectric properties in the mixed crystals [4-NH2PyH][SbCl4(1−x)Br4x]
2008
Abstract The group of mixed crystals of general formula: [4-APyH][SbCl4(1−x) Br4x] with x ranging from 0 to 1 was studied by means of differential scanning calorimetry, dilatometry and dielectric spectroscopy. The ferroelectric properties are preserved for mixed crystals with replacement fraction, x, less than 0.30. Moreover, such a substitution of the chlorine atoms by the bromine ones significantly lowers the temperature of the structural phase transition shifting it from 240 K for pure [4-APyH][SbCl4] to about 185 K for the mixed crystals richer in bromine. The dielectric relaxation process exhibited by the mixed crystal with x = 0.90 in the radio-frequency region was analyzed and the ac…
Crystal structure, phase transitions and ferroelastic properties of [(CH3)2NH2]3[Bi2Cl9]
2003
Abstract A sequence of structural phase transitions in [(CH3)2NH2]3[Bi2Cl9] (DMACB) is established on the basis of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and dilatometric studies. Four phase transitions are found: at 367/369, 340/341, 323/325 and 285/292 K (on cooling/heating). The crystal structure of DMACB is determined at 350 K. It crystallizes in monoclinic space group P21/n: a=8.062(2), b=21.810(4), c=14.072(3) A, β=92.63(3)°, Z=4, R1=0.0575, wR2=0.1486. The crystal is built of the double chain anions (“pleated ribbon structure”) and the dimethylammonium cations. Dielectric studies in the frequency range 75 kHz–900 MHz indicate relatively fast reorientation of the dimethylammonium cat…
