AbstractThe structure of amorphous silica has frequently been compared with its crystalline counterparts in an attempt to understand the glass structure beyond short-range correlations. This paper presents results from neutron total scattering measurements of several polymorphs of silica and shows how these can be used to make a direct, quantitative comparison of amorphous and crystalline forms. It is found that the glass is similar to HP-tridymite and β-cristobalite, both dynamically-disordered crystalline phases of silica, but only out to distances ∼7.5 Å, beyond which the structures diverge. This is too small to validate a microcrystallite theory of glass structure. It is the average 180° Si–O–Si linkage in these two crystalline phases which gives them the flexibility for their instantaneous disordered structure to resemble the quenched (static) glass structure.

The structure of ferroelectric 0.06LiNbO3-0.94K0.5Na0.5NbO3 (KNNL6) was investigated by the neutron total scattering method in the temperature range of 290–773 K. The Rietveld analysis using the powder neutron diffraction data in the range of 290–773 K indicates transition from a two-phase (monoclinic and tetragonal) mixture at room temperature to tetragonal and cubic phases at higher temperatures. However, characterization of the local structure by the pair distribution function (PDF) method indicates that the local structure (r ≲ 10 Å) stays monoclinic over the same temperature range. Besides, the local oxygen octahedral distortion exhibits smaller changes with temperature than what is observed for the long-range average structure.

The local structure of Ba3Mo1−xWxNbO8.5 is consistent with a mixture of regions richer in tetrahedral and octahedral sites, which redistribute at high temperature after a reconstructive phase transition.
