Abstract: | Ba1.33Sb2.66Al5.33O16 is a triple Hollandite, which crystallizes in a tetragonal cell (I4/m no. 87) with a=b=9.86090(5) Å and c=8.77612(6) Å. Its crystal structure was characterized using electron diffraction and X-ray powder diffraction; it is isotypic to K1.33Mg3.11Sb4.89O16, K1.76Mg3.25Sb4.75O16 and to K1.8Li2.45Sb5.55O16. In the rutile chains of Ba1.33Sb2.66Al5.33O16, the ordering of Al and Sb atoms into unmixed sites induces the tripling of the c parameter compared to a ‘single’ Hollandite structure. The Ba2+ cations are dispersed along c, in the largest tunnels on non-split and fully occupied sites. They lie into Ba-Ba pairs separated by vacancies. Their regular arrangement has been confirmed by high resolution electron microscopy. Electrochemical experiments have also been performed in Li-ion cell but no Li insertion was detected. |
