ABSTRACT The structures and lattice parameters of the Tantalum and Ta2O5 phases were determined by high temperature X-ray diffraction under vacuum and low pressure carbon monoxide between 293 and 2278 K. We show that the metallic phase structure is stabilized by inclusion of oxygen into the metal octahedral hole. We determined the crystalline characteristics at high temperatures for Ta and Ta2O5 Phases.
