Abstract
AbstractThe crystalline structure of the M2CuWO6 phases with M = Ba or Sr was obtained from X-ray powder diffraction at room temperature with CuKα radiation. The phases are isostructural with tetragonal unit cells, space group I4/m and Z = 2. The parameters for the Sr2CuWO6 phase are: Mr = 518.6, a = 5.42693(5) Å, c = 8.4087(1) Å, V = 247.65(1) Å3, Dx = 6.954 Mg/m3, μ = 77.75 mm−1, F(000) = 454, R = 0.0375 for 24 reflections; the parameters for the Ba2CuWO6 phase are: Mr = 618.1, a = 5.56392(8) Å, c = 8.6274(1) Å, V = 267.08(1) Å3, Dx = 7.683 Mg/m3, μ = 157.0 mm−1, F(000) = 526, R = 0.0506 for 27 reflections. Cell parameters were obtained from Rietveld refinement. The crystalline structure is based on the perovskite structure. It is laminar with ordered alternating WO6 deformed octahedra and CuO2 planar squares along the [110] direction, joined by corners and rotated perpendicular to the [001] direction. The samples are electrica insulators.
