Description

Two compounds of formula La7A3W4O30 (with A=Nb and Ta) were prepared by solid-state reaction at 1450 and 1490oC. They crystallize in the rhombohedric space group R-3 (No. 148), with the hexagonal parameters: a=17.0640(2)A, c=6.8859(1)A and a=17.0701(2)A, c=6.8851(1)A. The structure of the materials was analyzed from X-ray, neutron and electronic diffraction. These oxides are isostructural of the reduced molybdenum compound La7Mo7O30, which are formed of perovskite rod along [111]. An order between (Nb, Ta) and W is observed
