Abstract

Indexed X-ray powder diffraction data are reported for the homologous compound (ZnO)5(In1−xYx)2O3. The structures of (ZnO)5In2O3 and of (ZnO)5(In1−xYx)2O3 were refined by the Rietveld technique on the basis of the space group R3¯m. Refined unit cell dimensions are a=3.3285(1) Å, c=58.127(2) Å, V=557.71(3) Å3, Dx=6.11 g/cm3, Rwp=10.52, RB=8.56 for (ZnO)5In2O3, and a=3.3505(1) Å, c=57.863(1) Å, V=562.53(2) Å3, Dx=5.97 g/cm3, Rwp=9.05, RB=6.94 for (ZnO)5(In0.8Y0.2)2O3. The structure of (ZnO)5In2O3 was shown to be isostructural with (ZnO)5LuFeO3. Y3+ ions were determined to be arranged at the 3a-metal sites substituting for In3+ ions.
