摘要: The synthesis and structures of the perovskites Ln1/3TaO3 are described. As size Ln cation is reduced, compounds display a sequence structure: P4/mmm/La → Cmmm/Ce−Gd Pmma/Tb, Dy Pmc21/Ho, Er. Although apparently tetragonal in P4/mmm, electron diffraction patterns Tm1/3TaO3 reveal this has complex incommensurate structure. Likewise Gd1/3TaO3 appears metrically tetragonal, but synchrotron X-ray powder demonstrate actually orthorhombic. suppression spontaneous orthorhombic strain thought to be due proximity first-order Cmmm−Pmma transition. Variable temperature studies show both Tb1/3TaO3 Dy1/3TaO3 undergo transition upon heating.
