Title: Materials Data on Sr7Nb6O21 by Materials Project

Abstract

Sr7Nb6O21 crystallizes in the trigonal R-3 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are four inequivalent Sr2+ sites. In the first Sr2+ site, Sr2+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent O2- atoms. There are three shorter (2.58 Å) and three longer (2.60 Å) Sr–O bond lengths. In the second Sr2+ site, Sr2+ is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to six O2- atoms. There are three shorter (2.59 Å) and three longer (2.65 Å) Sr–O bond lengths. In the third Sr2+ site, Sr2+ is bonded to twelve O2- atoms to form SrO12 cuboctahedra that share corners with nine equivalent SrO12 cuboctahedra, faces with three equivalent SrO12 cuboctahedra, and faces with eight NbO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Sr–O bond distances ranging from 2.67–3.03 Å. In the fourth Sr2+ site, Sr2+ is bonded to twelve O2- atoms to form SrO12 cuboctahedra that share corners with six equivalent SrO12 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent SrO12 cuboctahedra, and faces with eight NbO6 octahedra. There are six shorter (2.84 Å) and six longer (2.87 Å) Sr–O bond lengths. There are three inequivalent Nb+4.67+ sites. In the first Nb+4.67+ site, Nb+4.67+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form NbO6 octahedra thatmore » share corners with six NbO6 octahedra and faces with four SrO12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 9–17°. There are three shorter (1.99 Å) and three longer (2.07 Å) Nb–O bond lengths. In the second Nb+4.67+ site, Nb+4.67+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted NbO6 octahedra that share corners with three equivalent NbO6 octahedra and a faceface with one SrO12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 17°. There are three shorter (1.89 Å) and three longer (2.22 Å) Nb–O bond lengths. In the third Nb+4.67+ site, Nb+4.67+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form NbO6 octahedra that share corners with six NbO6 octahedra and faces with seven SrO12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–9°. There are three shorter (2.03 Å) and three longer (2.04 Å) Nb–O bond lengths. There are four inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two Sr2+ and two Nb+4.67+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to three Sr2+ and one Nb+4.67+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to three Sr2+ and two Nb+4.67+ atoms. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to four Sr2+ and two equivalent Nb+4.67+ atoms.« less
