The angles correspond to the tilt of the bond vectors to 45 degrees‚ which is their orientation in the β-quartz type structure. For the α -> β transition δ2= 2/3 δ02 [1 + (1 – ¾ (T – Tc/T0 – Tc))^1/2]‚ the temperature dependence of tilt angle δ. δ0 is the reduction in tilt angle at the phase of change (980K) and Tc refers to the temperature for the second order change. The characteristic of FePO4 is different and thus does not relate to other kinds of α-quartz homeotypes. Angle of δ starts to decline
