Materials Data on BaGa2B2O7 by Materials Project
BaGa2B2O7 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmcm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ba2+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are six shorter (2.77 Å) and two longer (3.20 Å) Ba–O bond lengths. Ga3+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form corner-sharing GaO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Ga–O bond distances ranging from 1.86–1.90 Å. B3+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. There are a spread of B–O bond distances ranging from 1.36–1.41 Å. There are four inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to two equivalent Ba2+ and two equivalent Ga3+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to two equivalent Ba2+ and two equivalent B3+ atoms. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Ba2+, one Ga3+, and one B3+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Ga3+ and one B3+ atom.
