The crystal structure and the fault structure of the intermetallic Nb2Co7 phase were determined using DIFFaX+ refinements on the basis of synchrotron powder-diffraction data. The crystal structure was confirmed to be of the monoclinic Zr2Ni7 type. The layer faulting can be understood as partial occurrence of structural features of the Yb2Ag7-type structure, which contains the same "triple layers" as the Zr2Ni7-type structure does, but stacked in a different fashion.

Abstract
The crystal structure and the fault structure of the intermetallic Nb2Co7 phase were determined using DIFFaX+ refinements on the basis of synchrotron powder-diffraction data. The crystal structure was confirmed to be of the monoclinic Zr2Ni7 type. The layer faulting can be understood as partial occurrence of structural features of the Yb2Ag7-type structure, which contains the same "triple layers" as the Zr2Ni7-type structure does, but stacked in a different fashion.File in questo prodotto:
