Abstract: | Lattice Constants and Ionic Radii of Pyrochlores CsMIIMIIIF6 From observed lattice constants a0 of 30 cubic pyrochlores CsMIIMIIIF6 (MII = Mg, Ni, Cu, Zn, Co, Mn; MIII = Ga, Cr, Fe, V, Ti) balanced values ac were calculated, which deviate in average less than 0.1% from the observed ones. Radii rc of the M(II) and M(III) ions are evaluated from the balanced values ac by means of an empiric equation; they reproduce the lattice constants a0 equally well. By analogy derived radii rII and rIII from additional pyrochlores CsMIIMIIIF6 are given and discussed in comparison with tabulated radii and observed M? F distances. |
