Materials Data on K3Nb3(BO6)2 by Materials Project
K3Nb3B2O12 crystallizes in the trigonal P31m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. K1+ is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to thirteen O2- atoms. There are a spread of K–O bond distances ranging from 2.81–3.25 Å. Nb5+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form corner-sharing NbO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 8–30°. There are a spread of Nb–O bond distances ranging from 1.87–2.18 Å. B3+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent O2- atoms. All B–O bond lengths are 1.38 Å. There are three inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to three equivalent K1+ and two equivalent Nb5+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to four equivalent K1+, one Nb5+, and one B3+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to two equivalent K1+ and two equivalent Nb5+ atoms.
