The results show that Nd element intercalates into graphite, forming NdCI3-FeCI3-GICs, and the distribution of Nd and Fe is nearly even. On the basis of the data, a structure model for RECI3-GICs was founded, and the characteristic layer distance and the index of interval energy were calculated. The calculated results agree with experimental ones, and the relative errors are ±2%. Thus it can be seen that the (111) face is optimal direction for intercalation reaction of TbCl3-LuCl3, and the (001) face is that for LaCl3-GdCl3, because of the lowest interval energy.展开更多
