Title: Materials Data on CaSc2O4 by Materials Project

Abstract

CaSc2O4 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ca2+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ca–O bond distances ranging from 2.42–2.67 Å. There are two inequivalent Sc3+ sites. In the first Sc3+ site, Sc3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing ScO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 50–62°. There are a spread of Sc–O bond distances ranging from 2.07–2.20 Å. In the second Sc3+ site, Sc3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing ScO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 50–62°. There are a spread of Sc–O bond distances ranging from 2.10–2.17 Å. There are four inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded to two equivalent Ca2+ and three equivalent Sc3+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing OCa2Sc3 trigonal bipyramids. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ca2+ and three Sc3+ atoms. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded to two equivalent Ca2+ and three equivalent Sc3+ atoms to form amore » mixture of corner and edge-sharing OCa2Sc3 square pyramids. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ca2+ and three Sc3+ atoms.« less
