Abstract

The incommensurately modulated structure of Bi2Sr2Eu1.3Ce0.7Cu2O10.17, with a = 5.4752(4) Å, b = 5.4522(3) Å, c = 17.860(1) Å, Z = 2, was refined by the GJANA program [Gao et al., Acta Cryst. A 49, 141 (1993)] from X-ray powder data in C:C2mb: 111 four-dimensional space group (Rov = 0.064, Rm = 0.041, Rsat = 0.202, Rp = 0.049, Rwp = 0.065). Displacive modulation parameters of all cations and oxygen atoms in the Bi-layer were involved in the refinement. Obtained results including the modulation parameters are in agreement with those found for the similar phase Bi2Sr1.7Nd1.8Ce0.5Cu2O10+δ from single-crystal data [Mironov et al., J. Solid State Chem. 109, 74 (1994)].
