Abstract:The new compounds R 2 TaO 4−x N x with R = La, Ce, Nd, and Eu and 1.20 ≤ x ≤ 2.81 have been obtained by a solidstate reaction between metal nitrides and oxides or oxynitrides under N 2 gas at temperatures between 1200 and 1700 °C. They are the first examples of rare earth transition metal oxynitrides with an n = 1 Ruddlesden−Popper structure and show different anion stoichiometries, crystal structures, and magnetic properties. Synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction and electron diffraction indicate that the lant… Show more
