Va. Morozov et al., Crystal structures of double calcium and alkali metal phosphates Ca10M(PO4)(7) (M = Li, Na, K), CRYSTALLO R, 45(1), 2000, pp. 13-20
Crystal structures of double calcium and alkali metal phosphates described
by the general formula Ca10M(PO4)(7) (M = Li, Na, K) have been studied by t
he Rietveld method. The lattice parameters are a = 10.4203(1) and c = 37.38
9(1) Angstrom (for M = Li), a = 10.4391(1) and c = 37.310(1) Angstrom (for
M = Na), and a = 10.4229(1) and c = 37.279(2) Angstrom (for M = K); sp. gr.
R3c, Z = 6. The specific features of the distribution of alkali metal cati
ons over the structure positions are discussed. (C) 2000 MAIK "Nauka/Interp
