The crystal structure of BiNi: A complex superstructure of the InNi2 structure type
Ruck, Michael
, p. 2050 - 2054 (1999)
Chemical transport reactions using bromine or iodine yielded crystals of BiNi with a largely ordered distribution of nickel atoms on octahedral and trigonal bipyramidal interstices within the hexagonal packing of bismuth atoms. The observed superstructure of the NiAs or InNi2 structure types is described in the monoclinic space group F 1 2/m 1 (No. 12) with lattice parameters a = 1412.4(1), b = 816.21(6), c = 2142.9(2) pm, and β = 90°. The pseudo-orthorhombic cell facilitates twinning along [100]. Some crystals show an additional threefold twinning along [001]. The phase width of BiNi ranges from the nickel poor to the nickel rich region. In the vicinity of the stoichiometric composition BiNi, this has only an effect on the occupation of a single nickel position in the crystal structure.
Synthesis and characterization of Bi nanorods and superconducting NiBi particles
Park, Sangmoon,Kang, Kyongha,Han, Weiqiang,Vogt, Thomas
, p. 88 - 91 (2005)
Bi nanorods and NiBi particles were prepared using a simple hydrothermal reduction method at moderate temperatures of 150 °C. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) reveals pure Bi nanorods with diameters of about 50 nm and superconducting NiBi particles. The magnetic susceptibility (χ) of the superconducting NiBi was measured as a function of temperature at 10 Oe.

, p. 707 - 710 (2008/10/08)
The 723-K sections of the Y-Ni-Bi and Ho-Ni-Bi phase diagrams are studied by x-ray diffraction. The compounds HoNiBi, Y5Ni2Bi, Ho5Ni2Bi, ~Y67Ni38Bi5, ~Y5NiBi2, and ~Ho5NiBi2 are identified for the first time. Crystallographic data for these ternary compounds are presented.
