Abstract
Complex oxides in the Sm2O3–CaO–MO and Ln2O3–SrO–MO systems (Ln = Sm, Gd; M = Fe, Co) were prepared via the glycerol-nitrate technique at 1100°С in air. The homogeneity ranges for the solid solutions were determined as follows: Sr1 – хGdхCoO3 – δ (0.1 ≤ х ≤ 0.4); Sr2 – yGdyCoO4 – δ (0.8 ≤ y ≤ 1.2); Sr1 – хGdхFeO3 – δ (0.05 ≤ х ≤ 0.30 and 0.80 ≤ х ≤ 1.0); Ca1 – xSmxFeO3 – δ (0.70 ≤ x ≤ 1.0); Sr2 – ySmyFeO4 – δ (0.7 ≤ y ≤ 0.8); Sr2 – yGdyFeO4 – δ (0.75 ≤ y ≤ 0.8); Ca2 – уSmуFeO4 – δ (у = 0.90); Sr3 – zSmzFe2O7 – δ (0 ≤ z ≤ 0.3 and z = 1.8); and Sr3 – zGdzFe2O7 – δ (0 ≤ z ≤ 0.3 and z = 1.9). For all single phase oxides, the crystal structure was determined and the unit cell parameters, the unit cell volume, and the structural parameters were refined.
