Abstract: | On the Crystal Structure of Ca2PbO4 Single crystals of Ca2PbO4 were prepared by flux technique and investigated by X-ray methods. It crystallizes with orthorhombic symmetry, space group D-Pbam. (a = 5.832; b = 9.766; c = 3.375 Å, Z = 2.) Ca2PbO4 belongs to the Sr2PbO4 type. It shows Ca2+ in a seven fold and Pb4+ in octahedral coordination. |
