Structural phase transitions and crystal chemistry of the series Ba2LnB′O6 (Ln=lanthanide and B′=Nb5+ or Sb5+)

The structures of 28 compounds in the two series Ba2LnSbO6 and Ba2LnNbO6 have been examined using synchrotron X-ray and in selected cases neutron powder diffraction at, below and above ambient temperature. The antimonate series is found to undergo a sequence of phase transitions from monoclinic to r...
