Dauben Department of Chemistry and Radiation Laboratory University of California, Berkeley, California F ebruary 5, 1953 In cooperation with Professor B. B. Cunningham and his students, we have been observing the x-ray diffraction patterna of various compounds of americium, element 95. The isolation of americium produced by the beta decay of Pu*** has been described by Cunningham. * (2) B. B.

Prior to 1948 the purification was usually terminated when the impurities (chiefly lanthanum) were reduced to one or two percent. Since that time there have been available americium stocks of much higher purity. * In this paper we report our results concerning the O) H. R. Lohr and B. B. Cunningham, J. Am. Chem.

UCRL-2101 Americium Dioxide The black americium dioxide was shown by Zachariaeen to have the fluorite type structure. ^ For samplee of uncertain purity, the edge of the cubic unit cell was found to be 5. 372 t 0. 005 kX and 5. 377 t 0. 003 kX. We have examined by x-ray diffraction several americium dioxide samples, three of which were especially well crystallised and gave excellent powder patterns. Sample A (Table 11) was prepared by Dr. L. B. Asprey by ignition of the nitrate in air. The americium stock which was used may have contained a few per­ cent lanthanum. Sample B was prepared by Eyring from a much purer americium stock by heating the oxalate in air. * Some of this material subsequently was heated in a small quarts bomb to 500° C. with oxygen at 90 atm. pressure; the product is designated as sample C. The values observed for the unit cell dimension are compared in Table 1L The results for samples B and C show that the high pressure oxidation produces no significant change in the composition of this phase. Using the purer americium stock, Asprey and Cunningham^ measured the amount of oxygen absorbed by americium (13) L. B. Asprey and B. B. Cunningham, to be published. sesquioxide when heated in oxygen. The result corresponds to AmOx for the formula of the dioxide, with x * 1.98 - 0.02, if AmgOj is the correct composition of the sesquioxide. Thus the ''black dioxide" has very nearly the ideal composition, rather than an intermediate composition like the so-called Pr^O^. The deviation of sample A from samples B and C, though small, is outside the experimental precision. The difference corresponds ***** -9 UCRL-2101 to an oxygen defect in sample A of 0. 01 O per Am, estimated from the data of McCullough** for rare earth oxide systems. This defect could (14) J. D. McCullough, J. Am. Chem. Soc. 72, 1386-1390 (1950). be the result of an impurity of about 4 atomic percent of a trivalent rare earth element (probably lanthanum) in sample A.
