Structure Investigations

The crystal structure of the perovskite lead zirconate PbZrO3 has been redetermined using single-crystal X-ray diffraction (Mo Kα radiation, λ = 0.71069 Å). Single-crystal data at 100 K: space group. Pbam, a = 5.884 (1), b = 11.787 (3), c = 8.231 (2) Å, V = 570.85 Å3 with Z = 8, μ = 612.6 cm−1, D x = 8.06 Mg m−3, F(000) = 1168, final R = 0.033, wR = 0.061 over 555 reflections with I > 2σ(I). An investigation is made into previous contradicting reports of a possible disorder in the O atoms and their origin by examining the crystal pseudo-symmetry. Information distinguishing an ordered and disordered oxygen substructure is shown to reside in weak l odd reflections. Because of their extremely low intensities these reflections have not contributed sufficiently in previous X-ray structure investigations and hence, to date, conclusive evidence differentiating between ordered and disordered models has not been possible. By collecting single-crystal X-ray data at low temperature and by using exceptionally long scans on selected hkl, l odd, reflections, a new accurate structure determination is presented and discussed, showing the true ordered oxygen positions. Because of the large difference in scattering factors between lead and oxygen when using X-rays, a neutron diffraction Rietveld refinement using polycrystalline samples (D1A instrument, ILL, λ = 1.90788 Å) is also reported as further evidence to support the true ordered oxygen structure revealed by the low-temperature X-ray analysis.

Magnetically Aligned

Protein microcrystals magnetically aligned in D2O hydrogels were subjected to neutron diffraction measurements, and reflections were observed for the first time to a resolution of 3.4 Å from lysozyme microcrystals (∼10 × 10 × 50 µm). This result demonstrated the possibility that magnetically oriented microcrystals consolidated in D2O gels may provide a promising means to obtain single-crystal neutron diffraction from proteins that do not crystallize at the sizes required for neutron diffraction structure determination. In addition, lysozyme microcrystals aligned in H2O hydrogels allowed structure determination at a resolution of 1.76 Å at room temperature by X-ray diffraction. The use of gels has advantages since the microcrystals are measured under hydrated conditions.

Modulated Structures

Labradorite feldspars of the plagioclase solid solution series have been known for their complicated subsolidus phase relations and enigmatic incommensurately modulated structures. Characterized by the irrationally indexed e-reflections in the diffraction pattern, e-labradorite shows the largest variation in the incommensurate ordering states among the e-plagioclase structures. The strongly ordered low-temperature e-labradorite is one of the last missing pieces of the e-plagioclase puzzle. Nine plutonic and metamorphic labradorite feldspar samples from Canada, Ukraine, Minnesota (USA), Tanzania and Greenland with compositions ranging from An52.5 to An68 were studied with single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Two crystals from Labrador, Canada, and Duluth, MN, USA, with wide enough twin lamellae were analyzed with single-crystal neutron diffraction. The incommensurately modulated structures of e-plagioclase are refined for the first time with neutron diffraction data, which confirmed that the T—O distance modulation in the low-temperature e-plagioclase results from the Al–Si ordering in the framework. Detailed configurations of the M site are also observed in the structures refined from neutron diffraction data, which were not possible to see with X-ray diffraction data. The relation between the q-vectors and the mole% An composition is revealed for the entire compositional range of e-plagioclase, from An25 to An75. The previously proposed two-trend relation depending on the cooling rate and phase transition path is confirmed. A new classification of e-plagioclase (e α, e β and e γ) is proposed based on the q-vector of the structure, which makes it an independent character from the presence/absence of density modulation. New parameters are proposed to quantify the ordering states of these complicated aperiodic structures of e-plagioclases, such as the difference between 〈T1o—O〉 and 〈T1m—O〉 at phase t = 0.2 or the normalized intensity of the (071\bar 1) reflection.
