摘要
Single phase samples of the monoclinic and orthorhombic polymorphs of Nb12O29 have been identified and isolated. These polymorphs have different arrangements of nanometer dimension structural columns of ReO3-type niobium oxygen arrays: They differ in structure after a 3-nm translation in one of three dimensions while being the same in the other two. Magnetic susceptibility measurements show that one polymorph displays an antiferromagnetic transition at 12 K, along with short-range order fluctuations up to 25 K, while the other shows strict Curie-Weiss behavior down to 2 K.
