Abstract
La2O3 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent La3+ sites. In the first La3+ site, La3+ is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to seven O2- atoms. There are a spread of La–O bond distances ranging from 2.39–2.87 Å. In the second La3+ site, La3+ is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to seven O2- atoms. There are a spread of La–O bond distances ranging from 2.38–2.85 Å. In the third La3+ site, La3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing LaO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°. There are a spread of La–O bond distances ranging from 2.36–2.67 Å. There are five inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded to four La3+ atoms to form distorted OLa4 trigonal pyramids that share a cornercorner with one OLa6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent OLa5 square pyramids, corners with nine OLa4 tetrahedra, corners with two equivalent OLa4 trigonal pyramids, edges with three equivalent OLa5 square pyramids, and edges with two equivalent OLa4 trigonal pyramids. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 34°. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded to five La3+more »
