We review the crystal structures of 703 tellurium oxysalts for which good refinements exist, including 55 that are known to occur as minerals. The dataset is restricted to compounds where oxygen is the only ligand that is strongly bound to Te, but most of the Periodic Table is represented in the compounds that are reviewed. The dataset contains 375 structures that contain only Te4+ cations and 302 with only Te6+, with 26 of the compounds containing Te in both valence states. Te6+ was almost exclusively in rather regular octahedral coordination by oxygen ligands, with only two instances each of 4- and 5-coordination. Conversely, the lone-pair cation Te4+ displayed irregular coordination, with a broad range of coordination numbers and bond distances.

Tetrahedral SiO4 six-membered rings normally have no substitutions which results from very compact Si4+–O bonds in tetrahedra. Any substitution except Be would require significant tetrahedral ring distortion. The Be tetrahedron should also be negligibly substituted based on the bond-valence calculation; the tetrahedral Li–O bond length is almost 20% larger than Be2+–O. Similar or smaller bond lengths were calculated for Cr3+,V3+, Fe3+, Fe2+, Mn3+, Mg2+, and Al3+, which can substitute for Be but also can occupy a neighboring tetrahedrally coordinated site which is completely vacant in the full Be occupancy. The octahedral site is also very compressed due to dominant Al with short bond lengths; any substitution results in octahedron expansion. There are two channel sites in beryl: the smaller 2b site can be occupied by Na+, Ca2+, Li+, and REE3+ (Rare Earth Elements); Fe2+ and Fe3+ are too small; K+, Cs+, Rb+, and Ba2+ are too large. The channel 2a-site average bond length is 3.38 Å which allows the presence of + simple molecules such as H2O, CO2, or NH4 and the large-sized cations-preferring Cs .

Solid state ionics is now a thrust area because of ever increasing demand of solid electrolytes and probably the most widely used method for the preparation of solid electrolyte is the direct reaction in the solid state called solid state reaction. Considerable basic work on the theory of solid- solid interaction are reported over the years, particularly in sixties as a result of the emergence of solid devices. This thesis entitled "Study of solid state reactions" deals with study of the following four reactioirln solid state. 1. Ag2Hgl4:CuI 2. CuW04:Li2C03 3. Cu2Cdl4:Hgl2 4. Cu2Cdl4:HgCl2 Kinetics and mechanism of these reactions in solid state were studied by electrical Conductivity measurements, thermal Measurements, chemical & X-ray diffraction analysis. Electrical Conductivity Measurements Pellets for the electrical conductivity measurements were made by pouring the sample powders into a stainless steel die and pressing at a pressure of 4 tonnes with the help of a hydraulic pressure (spectra lab, model SL-89). Pellets were found to be of the same colour as that of the original powders, higher pressure, however, were found to cause uneven darkening in the pellets. All samples were annealed at 100°C for 12 hours before measurements to eliminate any grain boundar>' effect.

Zong1;2 1Department of Mathematics, University College London, Gower Street, London WC1E 6BT, England [email protected] 2Institute of Mathematics, The Chinese Acadamy of Sciences, Beijing 100080, People’s Republic of China [email protected] Abstract. In this note the kissing numbers of octahedra, rhombic dodecahedra and elon- gated octahedra are determined. In high dimensions, an exponential lower bound for the kissing numbers of superballs is achieved. Introduction Let K be an n-dimensional convex body. As usual, we denote the translative kissing number and the lattice kissing number of K by N.K / and N ¤.K /, respectively. In other words, N.K / is the maximal number of nonoverlapping translates of K which can be brought into contact with K , and N ¤.K / is the similar number when the translates are taken from a lattice packing of K . To determine the values of N.K / and N ¤.K / for a convex body K are important and difficult problems in the study of packings. These numbers, especially for balls, have been studied by many well-known mathematicians such as Newton, Minkowski, Hadwiger, van der Waerden, Shannon, Leech, Gruber, Hlawka, Kabatjanski, Leven˘stein, Odlyzko, Rankin, Rogers, Sloane, Watson, Wyner and many others. For details refer to [1]–[3] and [11]. In this note we determine the kissing numbers of octahedra, rhombic dodecahedra and elongated octahedra. In fact, besides balls and cylinders, they are the only convex bodies whose kissing numbers are exactly known.
