A theoretical and experimental study of the distorted pyrochlore Bi2Sn2O7

The pyrochlore based bismuth stannate, Bi2Sn2O 7, is a material with important applications in catalysis and gas sensing. The thermodynamically stable α phase has 352 atoms in the unit cell and is one of the most complex oxide crystal structures to have been solved by powder diffraction. We have per...
