摘要
A high precision temperature dependent X-ray powder diffraction study has been carried out on Ti4O7 in the temperature range between 180 and 90 K enclosing the metal-insulator and the so-called Ti4O7-Verwey transition. Both transitions are characterized by negative Volume effects as can be deduced from the temperature dependent course of the lattice parameters. Total strains induced by the formation of the intermediate phase are about 0.007 and about twice that value in the low temperature phase. In successive heating and cooling runs it is observed that the low temperature transition occurs stepwise, possibly related to the deterioration of the modulated structure.
