Title: Materials Data on Ba2GdCu3O7 by Materials Project

Abstract

GdBa2Cu3O7 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pmmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ba2+ is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to ten O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ba–O bond distances ranging from 2.77–3.03 Å. Gd3+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are four shorter (2.42 Å) and four longer (2.45 Å) Gd–O bond lengths. There are two inequivalent Cu+2.33+ sites. In the first Cu+2.33+ site, Cu+2.33+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form corner-sharing CuO5 square pyramids. There are a spread of Cu–O bond distances ranging from 1.95–2.28 Å. In the second Cu+2.33+ site, Cu+2.33+ is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four O2- atoms. There is two shorter (1.88 Å) and two longer (1.97 Å) Cu–O bond length. There are four inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded to four equivalent Ba2+ and two Cu+2.33+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing OBa4Cu2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–11°. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ba2+, two equivalent Gd3+, and two equivalent Cu+2.33+ atoms. In the third O2- site, O2- ismore » bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ba2+, two equivalent Gd3+, and two equivalent Cu+2.33+ atoms. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to four equivalent Ba2+ and two equivalent Cu+2.33+ atoms.« less
