Abstract
POTASSIUM, rubidium and cæsium form dark blue, hexagonal tungsten bronzes MexWO3, where the alkali content, which is probably somewhat variable, corresponds to values1 of x of about 0.3. The crystal structure of these compounds, which are isomorphous, has been established on the basis of an X-ray investigation of a single crystal of the rubidium bronze.
