Abstract
A powder sample of CsMnMoO3F3 oxyfluoride has been prepared by solid state synthesis. The pyrochlore-related crystal structure of CsMnMoO3F3 has been refined by the Rietveld method at T = 298 K (space group Fd-3m, a = 10.59141(4) A, V = 1188.123(8) A3; RB = 3.44%). The stability of the cubic phase has been obtained over the temperature range T = 110–293 K by heat capacity measurements. Magnetic properties have been measured over the range of T = 2–300 K. The electronic structure of CsMnMoO3F3 has been evaluated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Chemical bonding effects have been discussed for all metal ions using binding energy difference parameters and wide comparison with related oxides and fluorides. The competition between O2– and F– ions for metal valence electrons has been found.
