Materials Data on Nb2PbO6 by Materials Project
PbNb2O6 crystallizes in the trigonal R-3 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Nb5+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted NbO6 octahedra that share corners with four equivalent NbO6 octahedra, edges with two equivalent PbO12 cuboctahedra, and an edgeedge with one NbO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 28–34°. There are a spread of Nb–O bond distances ranging from 1.84–2.24 Å. There are two inequivalent Pb2+ sites. In the first Pb2+ site, Pb2+ is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three equivalent O2- atoms. All Pb–O bond lengths are 2.33 Å. In the second Pb2+ site, Pb2+ is bonded to twelve O2- atoms to form PbO12 cuboctahedra that share edges with twelve equivalent NbO6 octahedra. There are six shorter (2.87 Å) and six longer (2.97 Å) Pb–O bond lengths. There are three inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Nb5+ and two Pb2+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two equivalent Nb5+ atoms. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to two equivalent Nb5+ and one Pb2+ atom.
