Multidisciplinary study of thorium mobility: formation of turkestanite and steacyite analogues, and structural insights using an XRD-directed microcrystal preparation technique. [PDF]
A novel focused ion beam and scanning electron microscope‐based technique has been developed for mounting microcrystals on carbon fibre, making them immediately compatible with single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. This method has been successfully applied to studying the crystal chemistry of a synthetic Th‐bearing, Na analogues of turkestanite and ...
