Coincidence Orientations Of Crystals In Tetragonal Systems, With Applications To Yba2cu3o7, Abha Singh, N. Chandrasekhar, Alexander H. King

Alexander H. King

We have developed a method for the characterization of coincidence-site lattices (CSL's) in tetragonal or near-tetragonal orthorhombic structures, by suitable modifications to the method of Grimmer & Warrington [Acta Cryst. (1987), A43, 232-243]. We have applied our method to determine coincidence rotations and the associated information appropriate for forming constrained CSL's in the high-To superconductor YBazCu307-n. The unit cell is orthorhombic with lattice parameters a = 3.82, b = 3"89 and c = 11.67 A for the nominal composition. We present tables of coincidence rotation angles, .Z, CSL, DSCL and associated step vectors up to ,~ = 50. We find …
