Abstract

Synchrotron X-ray and a four-circle diffractometer were used to study the room temperature incommensurate phase in stage-2 graphite-bromine prepared with single crystal graphite in bromine liquid. The two strongest in-plane superlattice reflections and the strongest satellite peak were scanned along the most incommensurate direction of the lattice between 302 K and 324 K. The incommensurate-commensurate transition at 319 plus or minus 1 K caused disappearance of the incommensurate peaks and appearance of the commensurate one. Possible models of the incommensurate phase are presented.
