Abstract
Superlattice reflections observed for the first time in the room temperature powder neutron diffraction patterns of SCT Sr1-xCax)TiO3, ≥0.12 are shown to arise due to tilting of TiO6 octahedra. Rietveld refinement of the neutron diffraction data confirms that the structure of SCT for ≥0.12 is orthorhombic similar to that of CaTiO3. Implications of the presence of tilted TiO6 octahedra and the associated off-centre displacements of Sr3+/Ca2+ in SCT are discussed in detail with regard to the quantum ferroelectric behaviour of SCT at low temperatures. Structural phase transitions in SCT with x = 0.06 and 0.12 are also reported.
