Detailed structural properties of La1−xBaxCoO3 (LBCO) have been investigated by means of X-ray powder diffraction and Rietveld analysis. A structural phase transformation from R3c to Pm3m at x=0.30–0.35 has been detected based on a comparison between the refinements of R3c and Pm3m. The Co–O bond length of the CoO6 octahedron expanded rapidly with increasing Ba content when x<0.1, and then it leveled off and kept constant at 0.1⩽x⩾0.35, where the Co–O–Co bond angle reaches 180°. The Co–O bond length expansion resumed with increasing Ba content beyond x=0.35.

The strength of ceramics or glasses can be increased by placing their surfaces into compression. Techniques include ion exchange, temperature glazing, surface chemical reactions and stress-induced phase transformations. Although most of these techniques are well recognized, little effort has been expended In experimentally determining the magnitude of the compressive stress, and in particular, to use experimental evidence to identify important material and process parameters that need to be controlled. The goal of this investigation was to determine some of the factors that effect the magnitude, profile and depth of the compressive layer introduced by a structural phase transformation. X-ray residual stress measurements were used to directly determine the state of the surface residual stress.

Single-phase samples of La1−xCaxMnO3compounds have been synthesized by solid-state reaction. Detailed Rietveld analysis of powder X-ray diffraction data showed that La1−xCaxMnO3undergoes a structural phase transformation fromR-3ctoPnmaatX=0.05–0.075. There is a linear variation of lattice parameters as a function of calcium concentration. The slope of this linear variation changes atX=0.6. A correlation between observed Mn-O bond lengths, corresponding to different compositions, and possible magnetic phases is discussed.

Structural properties of Cd1−xCuxCr2O4(CCCO) have been investigated by means of X-ray powder diffraction and Rietveld analysis. A structural phase transformation from Fd3m to I42d at x=0.64 has been detected. The lattice constant a of the cubic unit cell decreases rapidly with increasing Cu content up to x=0.62. At x=0.64, the cubic unit cell is compressed into a tetragonal cell and CrO6 octahedrons are distorted. With continuing Cu content increases above 0.64, the distortion of the unit cell is released slightly according to the changes in c/a. Magnetic properties of Cd1−xCuxCr2O4(x=0.1,0.3,0.5,0.7) have also been measured and are discussed.
