New polymorphism for BaTi(IO3)6 with two polymorphs crystallizing in the same space group†
Abstract
Polymorphic α- and β-BaTi(IO3)6 have been synthesized. They crystallize in the same space group and exhibit highly similar structures. But the different powder X-ray patterns and crystal morphologies indicate that they belong to different phases, which represents the first phase transitions with two polymorphs possessing the same space group and similar cells.
