The Materials Project

Rb2O is Baddeleyite-like structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pbca space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Rb1+ sites. In the first Rb1+ site, Rb1+ is bonded to four equivalent O2- atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing RbO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Rb–O bond distances ranging from 2.91–2.98 Å. In the second Rb1+ site, Rb1+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent O2- atoms. There are a spread of Rb–O bond distances ranging from 2.83–2.92 Å. O2- is bonded to seven Rb1+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing ORb7 pentagonal bipyramids.
