AB  - The synthetic vanadinites (Pb(x)Ca(10-x))(VO4)6F2delta, 1 < x < 9, adopt a P6(3)/m apatite structure with 9.7590 (1) < or = a < or = 10.1179 (1) A and 7.0434 (3) < or = c < or = 7.4021 (1) A. The partitioning of calcium and lead over the AI(4f) and AII(6h) positions is nonstoichiometric with lead preferentially entering the larger AII site. High-resolution electron microscopy showed that samples annealed for 10 h at 1073 K are in disequilibrium with calcium- and lead-rich microdomains co-existing at unit-cell scales. For (Pb5Ca5)(VO4)6F2delta, sintering in excess of 2 weeks is required for the metals to order macroscopically. As annealing progresses, c/a, the partitioning coefficient kPb(AI/AII) and the AIO6 metaprism twist angle (phi) adjust cooperatively to enlarge the apatite channel, and thereby accommodate higher lead content. These results demonstrate that phi is a sensitive measure of disequilibrium and a useful device for monitoring changes in apatite topology as a function of composition.
