“…A few light hydride systems have been studied by Rietveld methods as a function of temperature and/or pressure: these are LiBH 4 (Filinchuk et al, 2008a, c;Dmitriev et al, 2008;Hagemann et al, 2009), Mg(BH 4 ) 2 (Filinchuk et al, 2009a;Riktor et al, 2007), Ca(BH 4 ) 2 (Filinchuk et al, 2009b;Riktor et al, 2007), NaBH 4 (Kumar and Cornelius, 2005;Babanova et al, 2009), RbBH 4 , NH 3 BH 3 (Filinchuk et al, 2009c) etc. Synchrotron radiation was used in all cases, enabling rapid data collection with a fine steps in P and T. Exhaustive data analysis yielded a picture of structural evolution expressed in terms of order parameters and uncovered the P-T phase diagrams.…”
