Title: Materials Data on Na3Nb34Al2O64 by Materials Project

Abstract

Na3Al2Nb34O64 crystallizes in the trigonal R-3 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Na sites. In the first Na site, Na is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three equivalent O atoms. All Na–O bond lengths are 2.68 Å. In the second Na site, Na is bonded to twelve O atoms to form NaO12 cuboctahedra that share corners with six equivalent NbO6 octahedra, edges with six equivalent NbO5 square pyramids, and faces with six equivalent NbO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 45°. There are six shorter (2.83 Å) and six longer (2.94 Å) Na–O bond lengths. There are seven inequivalent Nb sites. In the first Nb site, Nb is bonded to five O atoms to form NbO5 square pyramids that share corners with three NbO6 octahedra, corners with four NbO5 square pyramids, a cornercorner with one AlO4 tetrahedra, and an edgeedge with one NbO6 octahedra.

The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 56°. There is three shorter (1.75 Å) and one longer (1.81 Å) Al–O bond length. There are twelve inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to two Nb and one Al atom. In the second O site, O is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three equivalent Nb atoms.
