Abstract: | The systems AxNbxW1?xO3, A = K, Cs, have been studied at 1200°C for compositions x < 0.5. Phases with intergrowth tungsten bronze (ITB) structure form for x ~ 0.08 – 0.12 and with hexagonal tungsten bronze (HTB) structure for x ~ 0.20 (with a small homogeneity range). The potassium system contains a tetragonal tungsten bronze (TTB)-type phase at x ~ 0.45 – 0.60 and cesium forms a pyrochlore phase at x~0.35 – 0.40. The alkali contents of the HTB and pyrochlore phases are considerably lower than those of phases prepared at 900°C. The tunnel occupancy is approximately the same, ~ 60 %, in the ITB, HTB and pyrochlore phases prepared at 1200°C. Two types of superstructures have been observed in the HTB-type crystals. |
