Transmission Electron Microscopy Study of CaFe5O7 : Evidence of a Monoclinic Superstructure at Room Temperature
Abstract:
An efficient synthesis route is proposed to obtain single powder CaFe5O7 ceramic. This complex structure can be described as an intergrowth between one CaFe2O4 unit and n= 3 slices of FeO Wustite-type structures. A fine structural study has been carried out at room temperature by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) observations (ED and HREM). The analysis of these data has revealed a supercell with a monoclinic symmetry associated to some twinning phenomena. From the hkl conditions deduced to electron diffraction study, the centrosymmetric P21/m setting can be proposed. This monoclinic cell exhibit close relationships with the previous one reported as orthorhombic (ao =3.05 Å, bo = 10.05 Å and co = 18 Å) according to the following metric am=2co, bm=co, cm=bo/2sinβ and β=106.74°.
