Materials Data on Ho3SbO7 by Materials Project
Ho3SbO7 crystallizes in the orthorhombic C222_1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Ho3+ sites. In the first Ho3+ site, Ho3+ is bonded to seven O2- atoms to form distorted HoO7 pentagonal bipyramids that share corners with two equivalent SbO6 octahedra, a cornercorner with one HoO7 pentagonal bipyramid, edges with two equivalent SbO6 octahedra, and edges with three equivalent HoO7 pentagonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 45–48°. There are a spread of Ho–O bond distances ranging from 2.21–2.45 Å. In the second Ho3+ site, Ho3+ is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ho–O bond distances ranging from 2.32–2.76 Å. Sb5+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form SbO6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent SbO6 octahedra, corners with four equivalent HoO7 pentagonal bipyramids, and edges with four equivalent HoO7 pentagonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 44°. There are a spread of Sb–O bond distances ranging from 1.98–2.02 Å. There are five inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded to four Ho3+ atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing OHo4 tetrahedra. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ho3+ and two equivalent Sb5+ atoms. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded to three Ho3+ and one Sb5+ atom to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing OHo3Sb tetrahedra. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded to four Ho3+ atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing OHo4 tetrahedra. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to three Ho3+ and one Sb5+ atom.
