Abstract
The heterovalent isomorphism of Ln3++ and Ca2 + cations in stoichiometric LnCaAlO4 oxides was studied. The X-ray diffractometry of the intensity of Laue background modulations revealed a positive short-range order in Ln3 + and Ca2 + distribution over points of one structural site common for both ions, which results in formation of stable Ln3+-Ca2+ couples in adjacent nine-coordinate oxygen polyhedra. The degree of order and the interchange energy estimated in the quasichemical approximation depend both on the effective cationic charges and on the number of unpaired f electrons of the lanthanide atom.
