microcrystals of these materials. All form the higher temperature body‐centered cubic
structure at higher partial pressures of hexafluoride. At lower partial pressures and colder
nucleation conditions a lower symmetry form of each has been produced. Electron diffraction
powder patterns are consistent with the space group P nma to which metal hexafluorides of
UF6 type belong. Low temperature phases of the present materials differ from those of the …
