Reaction of the n = 2 Ruddlesden-Popper oxide Sr(3)Co(2)O(5.80) with CaH(2) yields an extended oxide-hydride phase: Sr(3)Co(2)O(4.33)H(0.84). Neutron powder diffraction data reveal the material adopts a body-centered orthorhombic structure (Immm: a = 3.7551(5) Å, b = 3.7048(4) Å, c = 21.480(3) Å) in which the hydride ions are accommodated within disordered CoO(1.16)H(0.46) layers. Low temperature neutron powder diffraction data show no evidence for long-range magnetic order, suggesting the chemical disorder in the anion lattice of the material leads to magnetic frustration.

The compression behavior of iron oxyhydroxide ε-FeOOH is complex, with variations in its magnetic property and bonding character. In this study, in situ powder neutron diffraction experiments were conducted on ε-FeOOH and ε-FeOOD up to pressures exceeding 20 GPa to investigate a spin-reorientation (spin-flop) transition, hydrogen-bond (H-bond) symmetrization, and their correlation. The magnetic transition was observed at 8 GPa in both ε-FeOOH and ε-FeOOD.

The magnetic structures of the Ho-based i-MAX phase (MoHo)GaC were studied with neutron powder diffraction at low temperature. (MoHo)GaC crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Cmcm. The material undergoes two successive antiferromagnetic transitions at T = 10 K and T = 7.

The distribution of substitutional aluminum (Al) atoms in zeolites affects molecular adsorbate geometry, catalytic activity, and shape and size selectivity. Accurately determining Al positions has been challenging. We used synchrotron resonant soft x-ray diffraction (RSXRD) at multiple energies near the Al K-edge combined with molecular adsorption techniques to precisely locate "single Al" and "Al pairs" in a commercial H-ZSM-5 zeolite.

A series of compositions NiInSn ( = 0-1) were synthesized by conventional high-temperature synthesis, and as-synthesized samples were checked by powder X-ray diffraction experiments. NiInSn ( < 0.7) mainly forms the ternary variant of the CoSn-type structure (6/), whereas, = 0.

The methanol-to-olefins (MTO) process has the potential to bridge future gaps in the supply of sustainable lower olefins. Promoting the selectivity of propylene and ethylene and revealing the catalytic role of active sites are challenging goals in MTO reactions. Here, we report a novel heteroatomic silicoaluminophosphate (SAPO) zeolite, SAPO-34-Ta, which incorporates active tantalum(V) sites within the framework to afford an optimal distribution of acidity.
