CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF PHASES FROM GdNiIn1-xAlx SOLID SOLUTION
The two phases within a continuous solid solution between the GdNiIn and GdNiAl compounds were synthesized and their crystal structures were determined on the basis of X-ray single crystal data: GdNiAl (ZrNiAl type, P-62m, a = 0.70200(5), c = 0.39148(1) nm, R1 = 0.0091, wR2 = 0.0202) and GdNiIn0.48(1)Al0.52(1) (ZrNiAl type, P-62m, a = 0.72500(5), c = 0.38532(1) nm, R1 = 0.0151, wR2 = 0.0323). Features of the structure were briefly discussed.
Keywords: Aluminum, Indium, single crystal, crystal structure.
