Materials Data on BaEuFe2O5 by Materials Project
BaEuFe2O5 crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ba2+ is bonded to twelve O2- atoms to form distorted BaO12 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent BaO12 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent BaO12 cuboctahedra, and faces with eight FeO5 square pyramids. There are a spread of Ba–O bond distances ranging from 2.81–3.16 Å. Eu2+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Eu–O bond distances ranging from 2.51–2.53 Å. There are two inequivalent Fe3+ sites. In the first Fe3+ site, Fe3+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form distorted FeO5 square pyramids that share corners with five FeO5 square pyramids and faces with four equivalent BaO12 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Fe–O bond distances ranging from 1.88–2.04 Å. In the second Fe3+ site, Fe3+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form FeO5 square pyramids that share corners with five FeO5 square pyramids and faces with four equivalent BaO12 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Fe–O bond distances ranging from 2.00–2.08 Å. There are five inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ba2+, two equivalent Eu2+, and two equivalent Fe3+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ba2+, two equivalent Eu2+, and two equivalent Fe3+ atoms. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ba2+, two equivalent Eu2+, and two equivalent Fe3+ atoms. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ba2+, two equivalent Eu2+, and two equivalent Fe3+ atoms. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded to four equivalent Ba2+ and two Fe3+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing OBa4Fe2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 6°.
