Materials Data on Bi2O3 by Materials Project
Bi2O3 crystallizes in the monoclinic Cm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Bi3+ sites. In the first Bi3+ site, Bi3+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six O2- atoms. There are a spread of Bi–O bond distances ranging from 2.21–2.93 Å. In the second Bi3+ site, Bi3+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form corner-sharing BiO5 trigonal bipyramids. There are a spread of Bi–O bond distances ranging from 2.24–2.38 Å. There are three inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four Bi3+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent Bi3+ atoms. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded to four Bi3+ atoms to form distorted corner-sharing OBi4 tetrahedra.
