The present study presents the relevance of X-ray diffraction analysis using synchrotron light in the identification of phases with low intensity peaks. Niobium sheets were coated with monetite and then converted to hydroxyapatite in an alkali solution. Octacalcium phosphate was identified as an intermediate phase in the conversion monetite-hydroxyapatite.

Abstract In this work, we synthesized and isolated a continuous 24-atom cluster Ge244−, which was characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis and Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, showing an elongated worm-like structural characteristic. Theoretical analysis reveals that electron delocalization plays a vital role in the formation and stabilization of the prolate cluster. In contrast with carbon atoms, 4s orbitals of Ge-atoms do not easily hybridize with 4p orbitals and s-type lone-pairs could be localized with high occupancy. Thus, there are not enough electrons to form a stable symmetrical fullerene-like structure such as C24 fullerene. Three aromatic units with two [Ge9] and one [Ge6] species, connected by classical 2c-2e Ge-Ge σ-bonds, have been aligned together forming three independent shielding cones (worm-aromaticity) and eventually caused a collapse of the global symmetry of the prolate cluster.
