Materials Data on VFe5(PO4)6 by Materials Project
VFe5(PO4)6 crystallizes in the trigonal R3 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. V3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form VO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra and a faceface with one FeO6 octahedra. There is three shorter (1.88 Å) and three longer (2.01 Å) V–O bond length. There are five inequivalent Fe3+ sites. In the first Fe3+ site, Fe3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted FeO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra, a faceface with one VO6 octahedra, and a faceface with one FeO6 octahedra. There are three shorter (2.16 Å) and three longer (2.18 Å) Fe–O bond lengths. In the second Fe3+ site, Fe3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted FeO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra and a faceface with one FeO6 octahedra. There are three shorter (1.94 Å) and three longer (2.16 Å) Fe–O bond lengths. In the third Fe3+ site, Fe3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted FeO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra and faces with two FeO6 octahedra. All Fe–O bond lengths are 2.09 Å. In the fourth Fe3+ site, Fe3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form FeO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra and a faceface with one FeO6 octahedra. There is three shorter (1.92 Å) and three longer (2.07 Å) Fe–O bond length. In the fifth Fe3+ site, Fe3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted FeO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra and a faceface with one FeO6 octahedra. There are three shorter (1.93 Å) and three longer (2.13 Å) Fe–O bond lengths. There are two inequivalent P5+ sites. In the first P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one VO6 octahedra and corners with five FeO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 25–56°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.52–1.58 Å. In the second P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one VO6 octahedra and corners with five FeO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 27–53°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.51–1.58 Å. There are eight inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Fe3+ and one P5+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two Fe3+ and one P5+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one V3+ and one P5+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two Fe3+ and one P5+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Fe3+ and one P5+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one V3+, one Fe3+, and one P5+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two Fe3+ and one P5+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Fe3+ and one P5+ atom.
