AbstractIdeal sillenite type Bi12FeO20 (BFO) micron sized single crystals have been successfully grown via inexpensive hydrothermal method. The refined single crystal X-ray diffraction data reveals cubic Bi12FeO20 structure with single crystal parameters. Occurrence of rare Fe4+ state is identified via X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS). The lattice parameter (a) and corresponding molar volume (Vm) of Bi12FeO20 have been measured in the temperature range of 30–700 °C by the X-ray diffraction method. The thermal expansion coefficient (α) 3.93 × 10–5 K−1 was calculated from the measured values of the parameters. Electronic structure and density of states are investigated by first principle calculations. Photoelectrochemical measurements on single crystals with bandgap of 2 eV reveal significant photo response. The photoactivity of as grown crystals were further investigated by degrading organic effluents such as Methylene blue (MB) and Congo red (CR) under natural sunlight. BFO showed photodegradation efficiency about 74.23% and 32.10% for degrading MB and CR respectively. Interesting morphology and microstructure of pointed spearhead like BFO crystals provide a new insight in designing and synthesizing multifunctional single crystals.

In pharmaceutical sciences, the crystal structure is of primary importance because it influences drug efficacy. Due to difficulties of growing a large single crystal suitable for the single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis, powder diffraction method is widely used. In powder method, two-dimensional diffraction information is projected onto one dimension, which impairs the accuracy of the resulting crystal structure. To overcome this problem, we recently proposed a novel method of fabricating a magnetically oriented microcrystal array (MOMA), a composite in which microcrystals are aligned three-dimensionally in a polymer matrix. The X-ray diffraction of the MOMA is equivalent to that of the corresponding large single crystal, enabling the determination of the crystal lattice parameters and crystal structure of the embedded microcrytals.[1-3] Because we make use of the diamagnetic anisotropy of crystal, those crystals that exhibit small magnetic anisotropy do not take sufficient three-dimensional alignment. However, even for these crystals that only align uniaxially, the determination of the crystal lattice parameters can be easily made compared with the determination by powder diffraction pattern. Once these parameters are determined, crystal structure can be determined by X-ray powder diffraction method. In this paper, we demonstrate possibility of the MOMA method to assist the structure analysis through X-ray powder and single crystal diffraction methods. We applied the MOMA method to various microcrystalline powders including L-alanine, 1,3,5-triphenyl benzene, and cellobiose. The obtained MOMAs exhibited well-resolved diffraction spots, and we succeeded in determination of the crystal lattice parameters and crystal structure analysis.

Single crystal X-ray diffraction methods for the study of crystalline materials, although reliable, have been, mainly confined to the academic laboratory because of the rather lengthy and complex procedure necessary to determine the unit cell and the space group. The situation has now changed. Several recent developments give single-crystal methods considerable potential for routine Industrial use. They Include growth of the data base, advances in lattice theory, and automation of the single-crystal X-ray diffractometer. To identify an unknown, one can start with a single crystal, mount it on the diffractometer, determine a refined primitive cell, reduce the cell, and check against a file of known reduced cells. The entire procedure can be automated. As a result, the single-crystal X-ray diffraction method can now complement the powder method for the routine analysis of crystalline materials.

X-ray diffraction method has been employed to calibrate the stress of 6082 aluminum alloy which has been widely used among modern industrial products. Based on elastic tensile conditions, by designing rod sample of uniform intensity calibration (RSUIC), the stress measurement by X-ray diffraction method has been verificated by using elastic tensile theory calculation method and electrometric method. The results show that the stress measured by the tensile stress theoretical calculation, electrometric method and X-ray diffraction method was in good accordance with each other. And the matching relation between the surface stress measured by X-ray diffraction and the internal stress is investigated. The research will lay a foundation for the application of iXRD stress instrument for nondestructive measuring the welding residual stress of aluminum alloy.

An X-ray diffraction method is developed for the determination of the distribution of temperature and interplanar spacing in a single-crystal plate. In particular, the temperature and the interplanar spacing differences in two different parts of a quartz single crystal of X-cut are experimentally determined depending on the value of the temperature gradient applied perpendicularly to the reflecting atomic planes (10\bar 11). The temperature distribution along the direction perpendicular to the reflecting atomic planes (10\bar 11) and the interplanar spacing distribution of atomic planes (10\bar 11) are determined as well.

Single crystals of Na0.44MnO2 (=Na4Mn9O18) have been synthesized by a flux method at 1173 K for the first time. The crystal structure of Na0.44MnO2 has been refined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction method. The framework structure consists of double and triple rutile-type chains of edge-sharing MnO6 octahedra and a single chain of edge-sharing MnO5. The Mn-O bond distance and bond valence analyses revealed the manganese valence Mn3+/Mn4+ ordering in the Na0.44MnO2 structure.

AbstractThe first enzyme-catalyzed kinetic resolution of tert-butyl-3-hydroxy-4-phenylpyrrolidine-1-carboxylate is presented. Enzyme, solvent and temperature optimization resulted in a new resolution method with E = 40 enantioselectivity. The acetate derivative of the (+)-(3S,4R) enantiomer formed while the (−)-(3R,4S) isomer remained intact. Very good enantioselectivities (E > 200) were achieved in the enzyme-catalyzed alcoholysis of the racemic acetate in i-propanol and t-butanol where the (+)-(3S,4R) enantiomer was prepared in pure form (ee > 99.7%). Absolute configuration of the (−)-(3R,4S)-enantiomer was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction method.

AbstractCrystal structure of the ζ2' martensite in a Au-49.5at%Cd ally has been analyzed by the single crystal x-ray diffraction method. The crystal lattice was trigonal and the lattice constants were a:0.8095(3) and c=o.57940(6) nm. There were 18 atoms in a unit cell. The space group was P3, which was different from that previously determined by Vatanayon and Hehemann. The structure was refined by the full matrix least squares method to a final R factor of 7.8% and a weighted R factor of 4.1%.
