Materials Data on Ba4Ca8Cu11CO20 by Materials Project
(Ba2Ca4(CuO2)5)2CuC crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group. The structure is two-dimensional and consists of two copper molecules; two methane molecules; and two Ba2Ca4(CuO2)5 sheets oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction. In each Ba2Ca4(CuO2)5 sheet, Ba2+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent O2- atoms. All Ba–O bond lengths are 2.65 Å. There are two inequivalent Ca2+ sites. In the first Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are four shorter (2.49 Å) and four longer (2.58 Å) Ca–O bond lengths. In the second Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are four shorter (2.51 Å) and four longer (2.54 Å) Ca–O bond lengths. There are five inequivalent Cu+1.09+ sites. In the first Cu+1.09+ site, Cu+1.09+ is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four equivalent O2- atoms. All Cu–O bond lengths are 1.96 Å. In the second Cu+1.09+ site, Cu+1.09+ is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four equivalent O2- atoms. All Cu–O bond lengths are 1.96 Å. In the third Cu+1.09+ site, Cu+1.09+ is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four equivalent O2- atoms. All Cu–O bond lengths are 1.97 Å. In the fourth Cu+1.09+ site, Cu+1.09+ is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four equivalent O2- atoms. All Cu–O bond lengths are 1.97 Å. In the fifth Cu+1.09+ site, Cu+1.09+ is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four equivalent O2- atoms. All Cu–O bond lengths are 1.97 Å. There are three inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded to four Ca2+ and two Cu+1.09+ atoms to form OCa4Cu2 octahedra that share corners with fourteen OBa2Ca2Cu2 octahedra, edges with four OBa2Ca2Cu2 octahedra, and faces with four equivalent OCa4Cu2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 1–67°. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded to two equivalent Ba2+, two equivalent Ca2+, and two Cu+1.09+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge, face, and corner-sharing OBa2Ca2Cu2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 3–67°. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded to four equivalent Ca2+ and two equivalent Cu+1.09+ atoms to form a mixture of edge, face, and corner-sharing OCa4Cu2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–67°.
