Materials Data on RbGa3(P3O10)2 by Materials Project
RbGa3(P3O10)2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic C222_1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Rb1+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Rb–O bond distances ranging from 3.01–3.30 Å. There are three inequivalent Ga3+ sites. In the first Ga3+ site, Ga3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form GaO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Ga–O bond distances ranging from 1.95–1.99 Å. In the second Ga3+ site, Ga3+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form GaO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four PO4 tetrahedra. There is two shorter (1.82 Å) and two longer (1.85 Å) Ga–O bond length. In the third Ga3+ site, Ga3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form GaO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Ga–O bond distances ranging from 1.97–2.02 Å. There are three inequivalent P5+ sites. In the first P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two GaO6 octahedra, a cornercorner with one GaO4 tetrahedra, and a cornercorner with one PO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 39–50°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.51–1.65 Å. In the second P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two GaO6 octahedra, a cornercorner with one GaO4 tetrahedra, and a cornercorner with one PO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 21–39°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.50–1.64 Å. In the third P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two GaO6 octahedra and corners with two PO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 43–45°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.50–1.61 Å. There are ten inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Ga3+ and one P5+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Rb1+, one Ga3+, and one P5+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Ga3+ and one P5+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two P5+ atoms. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Rb1+, one Ga3+, and one P5+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two P5+ atoms. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Ga3+ and one P5+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Rb1+, one Ga3+, and one P5+ atom. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Rb1+, one Ga3+, and one P5+ atom. In the tenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a linear geometry to one Ga3+ and one P5+ atom.
