Preparation and Study the Structural Properties for Compound Tl_0.9Hg_0.1Sr₂Ca₂Cu₃O_8+δ Using the Modified Scherer Equation

Abstract

In this paper, the compound Tl0.9Hg0.1Sr2Ca2Cu3O8+δ was produced using solid status reaction procedure. The crystal construction of specimen was studied using x-ray deviation device. X-ray diffraction (XRD) study of the crystalline nature confirmed that the sample of compound has a lattice structure from a mixture for different phases, it is has a tetragonal structure. The crystal size was calculated and investigated from the traditional Debye-Scherer method and the modified method for it. It is note the approximate values of crystal size and crystallinity in percentage between the modified Scherer method and the traditional Debye-Scherer method change depending on the peaks intensity of XRD diagram. Furthermore, the sample was taken into account to determine the physical and microstructure factors such as crystal strain.
