摘要
A hydride of TbNiSi has been synthesized and studied by neutron and synchrotron X-ray diffraction. TbNiSiD1.78 (space group P6(3)/mmc, a = 4.03078(10) Angstrom, c = 7.97563(11) Angstrom) takes the ZrBeSi-type structure with D in 4f sites (1/3, 2/3, 0.0466(3)), surrounded by Tb3Ni in tetrahedral coordination. The metal atoms of TbNiSiD1.78 occupy 2a, 2c and 2d sites, respectively. Each D-filled Tb3Ni tetrahedron shares three edges (via Tb-To bonds) and one corner (via Ni) with equivalent Tb,Ni tetrahedra. During deuteration a displacive transition of the metal lattice take place, which increases the symmetry from orthorhombic (TiNiSi-type structure) to hexagonal. TbNiSiD1.78 has the geometry of an AA stacking of close-packed Tb layers. The same transition has earlier been observed for LaNiSn deuteride. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
