N2 - Metastability of the K2NiF4 type aluminate LaCaAlO4 and its chromium diluted solid solution LaCaCrxAl1-xO4 (x≤0.10) was evidenced at 1400‡C in air, in terms of demixing into the parent structures of the 1:1 intergrowth, i.e. the perovskite and rocksalt type LaAlO3 (LaCrxAl1-xO3) and CaO, respectively. This behaviour is discussed comparatively with YCaAlCO4 and LaSrAlO4 whose structures are stable under the same thermodynamic conditions. The results of a structure analysis are used to emphasize the role of the nine-fold co-ordination of the (A3+=Y3+, La3+; A2+=Ca2+, Sr2+) cations as "mixing" the twelve-fold co-ordination of A3+ in A3+AlO3 perovskite and the six-fold one of A2+ in A2+O rocksalt. Calcium-oxygen underbonding in the (La, Ca)-O-Al bridge is assumed to trigger the metastability of the intergrowth structure at high temperature.
