Abstract
For the RE13Zn58quasi crystal approximants (RE = Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Gd, Tb, Dy), single crystals were prepared from the elements and their structures were refined from single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. They are derived from the Gd13Cd58type structure and crystallize in the space group P63/mmc or its subgroups. The crystal structures of Ce and Pr compounds are identical to that of the archetype, in the Nd compound a pair exchange disorder changes the composition and for Sm a further, partially occupied interstitial position lowers the symmetry to P63mc. For the compounds with Gd, Tb and Dy, the occupancy may order, lowering the symmetry further. For the case of Tb13Zn59 high quality single crystals allowed us to refine the fully ordered orthorhombic super structure.
Keywords: Approximant; Superstructure; Order-disorder; Single crystal structure analysis; X-ray diffraction
