AbstractThe title compound was prepared from the elements by arc-melting. The crystal structure was investigated by means of single-crystal X-ray diffraction. It crystallizes in the TbFeSi2 structure type, orthorhombic space group Cmmm, a = 4.0496(8), b = 16.416(2), c = 3.9527(6) Å, Z = 4, R1 = 0.041, wR2 = 0.11 for 207 unique reflections with Io > 2 σ(Io) and 19 refined parameters. The Fe position is not fully occupied and the refinement results in a composition GdFe0.68Si2 in agreement with a chemical analysis. The structure consists of zig-zag chains of Si(1) atoms which are terminally bound to additional Si(2) atoms. For an ordered variant GdFe0.5Si2 the Zintl concept can be applied which results in formal oxidation states Gd3+(Fe2+)0.5Si(1)1−Si(2)3−. The electronic structure of this variant GdFe0.5Si2 was analyzed using the tight-binding LMTO method and the results confirm the simple bonding picture.

Abstract LaAlSi2 (a = 4.196(2), c = 11.437(7) Å; P3̄ml; Z = 2) was synthesized by arc-melting of preheated mixtures of the elements. The compound was investigated by means of X-ray methods and by neutron diffraction. The crystal structure can be described as a stacking variant of two different segments. The first one corresponds to the CaAl2Si2 structure type (LaAl2Si2), the second one with the A1B2 structure type (LaSi2). The segments are stacked along [001]. The electronic structure of the compound is discussed on the basis of LMTO band structure calculations.

AbstractThe equiatomic rare earth iridium indidesREIrIn (RE=La, Pr, Nd, Er–Yb) were synthesized by reaction of the elements in induction or muffle furnaces and were characterized through X-ray powder patterns. The structures of LaIr0.86In1.14, PrIr0.89In1.11, NdIr0.94In1.06, ErIrIn (all ZrNiAl type,P6̅2m), and YbIrIn (TiNiSi type,Pnma) were refined from single crystal X-ray diffractometer data. Refinements of the occupancy parameters revealed small degrees of solid solutions with indium substitution on the iridium sites. Chemical bonding analyses and electronic structure calculations indicate the dominance of metallic bonding in addition to partial ionic interactions between the cations and polyanions, as well as covalent contributions between the indium and iridium atoms.

In order to study the evolution of local crystal and electronic structure of Sr2CuO2F2+x, the synchrotron radiation x-ray absorption (XAS) and x-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) techniques were both performed on different amount of Sr2CuO2F2+x materials. The relationship between high Tc superconductivity and valence state of cooper was mainly discussed. And the effect of by-reproduce SrF2 in non-superconductive Sr2CuO2F2+x on physical property of this material was considered. The experimental results showed that the valence state of Cu and the amount of SrF2 was mainly related with high Tc superconductivity of Sr2CuO2F2+x material, indicating a good method for improving Tc.
