Paper hydrostatic condition. High-pressure powder patterns were recorded on an imaging plate (Rigaku, R-AXIS IV++) detector. The data were converted into one-dimensional profiles (2θintensity data) using IP Analyzer software. 25 The XRD profiles were analysed using PDIndexer. 25 Pressures were determined by the ruby fluorescence method. 26 Measurements were performed at rt in compression up to ca. 5 GPa.
57 Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy 57 Fe Mössbauer spectra of 2 and 3 were recorded at 70 K and 200 K on a constant acceleration spectrometer with a γ-ray source of 57 Co/Rh in the transmission mode. Measurements were performed using a closed-cycle helium refrigerator (Iwatani Industrial Gases Corp.) and a conventional Mössbauer spectrometer (Topologic Systems). All isomer shifts were obtained relative to α-Fe at rt. The Mössbauer spectra were fitted using the least-squares fitting program MossWinn 4.0. 27

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
