X-ray diffraction study of anharmonic thermal vibrations in β-AgI

Abstract
Intensity data were collected at room temperature from an extended-face crystal of AgI using Mo radiation. Least-squares refinement indicates that the thermal motion of the Ag+ ions is large with a considerable anharmonic component. The wurtzite positional parameter, u, was found to be 0.3748(2). The proportion of point defects was determined to be no greater than 0.9%. The proportion of random staking faults was determined by two experimental techniques to be no greater than 2%.
