Abstract

Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) study of the main phases in the Bi₂O₃-ZnO-Nb₂O₅ (BZN) system was performed. Electron diffraction patterns (EDP) revealed a conventional cubic pyrochlore structure, space group Fd3m for the Bi_3/2ZnNb_3/2O₇ composition, and a monoclinic zirconolite-like structure, space group C2/c for the Bi₂Zn_2/3Nb_4/3O₇ composition. Dark field (DF) images gave evidence of stacking faults in the monoclinic phase along the 〈001〉 direction, which is consistent with the layered nature of the phase.
