Neutron diffraction study of crystal structure and temperature driven molecular reorientation in solid α-CO

Neutron diffraction studies have been carried out on carbon monoxide (CO) in the temperature range of 14–68 K. From the data of the temperature dependent crystal parameters, the volume thermal expansion β (T), C–O bond length, and intermolecular distance of CO have been determined and compared with...
