Abstract :
[en] A new family of antimonates Li2Cr3-xMIIIxSbO8 (MIII = Al, Fe, Ga) was synthesized and studied by X-ray diffraction and ir spectroscopy. The Al-containing compounds exhibit a hexagonal close-packed structure similar to that of LiFeSnO4 (a {reversed tilde equals} 5.8, c {reversed tilde equals} 9.5 Å. For M = Fe or Ga, two structural forms are isolated: a low-temperature hexagonal form which is isotypic with LiFeSnO4 and a high-temperature cubic form isotypic with the spinel structure. The hexagonal spinel transformation was observed for the first time, while the reverse transformation cannot be obtained. © 1982.
