Abstract
Fe3O4 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pbcm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are six inequivalent Fe+2.67+ sites. In the first Fe+2.67+ site, Fe+2.67+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form distorted FeO5 square pyramids that share corners with eight FeO6 octahedra, edges with two equivalent FeO6 octahedra, and edges with two equivalent FeO5 trigonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 33–80°. There are a spread of Fe–O bond distances ranging from 1.99–2.07 Å. In the second Fe+2.67+ site, Fe+2.67+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form distorted FeO5 trigonal bipyramids that share corners with eight FeO6 octahedra, edges with two equivalent FeO6 octahedra, and edges with two equivalent FeO5 square pyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 28–71°. There are a spread of Fe–O bond distances ranging from 1.97–2.06 Å. In the third Fe+2.67+ site, Fe+2.67+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted FeO6 octahedra that share corners with four equivalent FeO6 octahedra, corners with three equivalent FeO5 square pyramids, corners with three equivalent FeO5 trigonal bipyramids, edges with two equivalent FeO6 octahedra, and faces with two equivalent FeO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 48–54°. There are a spreadmore »
