Refinement details


Refinement remarks: Commensurate structure refined within the superspace formalism. Atomic occupancies constrained with penalty functions. WARNING: The published thermal displacement parameters have been converted to U,s. The calculated standard uncertainties (s.u.) have been based uniquely on the published ones without considering the s.u. of any other quantity involved in such conversion. WARNING: The published thermal displacement parameters, Biso, have been converted to Uiso. [ Help ]
