要旨

Substitution of cadmium into bulk hydroxyapatite Ca(10−x)Cdx(PO4)6(OH)2 (CdHA: x = 0.12, 1.3, 2.5) is studied by combining X-ray diffraction data from synchrotron radiation, Fourier transform infra-red spectroscopy (FTIR) and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Energetic and electronic analyses are carried out for several configurations of Cd substitution for Ca at both cationic sites. Rietveld analysis shows preferential occupation of the Ca2 site by cadmium. FTIR data suggest a non-negligible covalent character of Cd–OH. The much-discussed cation site preference for substitution is determined on the basis of relaxed-lattice energetics, and interpreted in terms of chemical concepts; theory indicates that the Ca2 site is clearly favored and this preference is related to the more covalent character of this site compared to that of site 1.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
