摘要

A cubic pyrochlore with the composition Bi2Ni1/2Co1/2Ta2O9±δ (sp. gr. Fd–3m, a = 10.5261(8) Å) was synthesized from the corresponding oxides by the solid phase reaction method for the first time. The complex oxide is characterized by a porous microstructure formed by partially fused crystallites of elongated shape with an average longitudinal size of 1 – 2 μm. The chemical state of the transition element cations in pyrochlore was characterized by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and x-ray absorption near edge structure (NEXAFS). A characteristic shift of the Ta4f spectrum by 0.8 eV into the low energy region is observed for the pyrochlore. The charge state of the tantalum cations corresponds to a value of +(5 – δ). The absorption spectrum of pyrochlore near the Co2p absorption edge is a superposition of the CoO and Co3O4 spectra. According to the nature of the XPS, and NEXAFS Ni2p spectra the nickel ions are in the Ni(II, III) state.
