Abstract: | Formation of Solid Solutions within the Systems As2O5/SbAsO5 and As2O5/AsPO5 Determinations of the Spontaneous Deformations and Refinements of the Crystal Structures of the Ternary Border Phases As2O5 allows for substitution of tetrahedrally and octahedrally coordinated arsenic by phosphours and antimony, respectively. The solid solutions As2? xPxO5 and SbxAs2? xO5 range from x = 0.5 to 1.0 and x = 0.75 to 1.0. The crystal structures of the ternary oxides AsPO5 and SbAsO5 have been refined by profile fitting of x-ray powder diagrams; both are isostructural to As2O5, for lattice constants see ?Inhaltsübersicht”?. Both are undergoing ferroelastic/paraelastic phase transitions which are completed at 600°C (AsPO5) and 760°C (SbAsO5), the spontaneous strains at room temperature being ?s = 1.50 × 10?2 and 2.27 × 10?2 respectively. |
