“…[ 18 ] While it is tempting to think that a solid solution could exist from x = 0 to x = 1, the -SrHPO4 crystal structure is orthorhombic while LaPO4 is monoclinic. Thus it cannot be expected that a continuous solid solution exists between SrPO3(OH) and LaPO4.…”
Monazite-type LnPO4 is a stable phase for many of the larger rare earths. The 9-fold coordinated La 3+ sites can be substituted by other large ions including aliovalent ions such as Sr 2+.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
