F. Merlo et al., RMX COMPOUNDS FORMED BY ALKALINE-EARTHS, EUROPIUM AND YTTERBIUM .3. TERNARY PHASES WITH M-EQUIVALENT-TO-MG, HG AND X-EQUIVALENT-TO-SI, GE, SN, PB, Journal of alloys and compounds, 196(1-2), 1993, pp. 145-148
Seventeen new RMX phases were synthesized in the systems with R = Ca,
Sr, Ba, Eu, Yb, M = Mg, Hg and X = Si, Ge, Sn, Pb. X-Ray analysis on p
owders and single crystals assigned the phases to five structure types
: ZrBeSi, LiGaGe, TiNiSi, CeCu2 and ZrNiAl. The distribution of 180 po
ssible RMX compounds among eight structural types is discussed in a tr
idimensional map.
