Ein Beitrag über Oxide vom Typ AMO4 (A = Ti3+, Cr3+; M = Nb5+, Ta5+)

A Contribution on Ternary Oxides of the AMO₄-Type (A = Ti³⁺, Cr³⁺; M = Nb⁵⁺, Ta⁵⁺ ) CrNbO₄, CrTaO₄, TiNbO₄, and TiTaO₄ were prepared by CO₂-laser technique. X-ray single crystal investigations show a random distribution of the metal ions in Rutil type structure, space group D–P4₂/mnm. Calculations of the free energy of reaction between Ti₂O₃ and Nb₂O₅ show higher stability of TiO₂ beside NbO₂. In TiNbO₄ both metals exhibit the oxidation state +4.
