Title: Materials Data on CeTh9O20 by Materials Project

Abstract

Th9CeO20 is Fluorite-derived structured and crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are five inequivalent Th4+ sites. In the first Th4+ site, Th4+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are seven shorter (2.43 Å) and one longer (2.44 Å) Th–O bond lengths. In the second Th4+ site, Th4+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Th–O bond distances ranging from 2.42–2.44 Å. In the third Th4+ site, Th4+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are one shorter (2.42 Å) and seven longer (2.43 Å) Th–O bond lengths. In the fourth Th4+ site, Th4+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Th–O bond distances ranging from 2.42–2.44 Å. In the fifth Th4+ site, Th4+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are two shorter (2.42 Å) and six longer (2.43 Å) Th–O bond lengths. Ce4+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. All Ce–O bond lengths are 2.40 Å. There are ten inequivalent O2- sites. In themore » first O2- site, O2- is bonded to four Th4+ atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing OTh4 tetrahedra. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded to four Th4+ atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing OTh4 tetrahedra. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded to four Th4+ atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing OTh4 tetrahedra. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded to four Th4+ atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing OTh4 tetrahedra. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded to three Th4+ and one Ce4+ atom to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing OCeTh3 tetrahedra. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded to three Th4+ and one Ce4+ atom to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing OCeTh3 tetrahedra. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded to four Th4+ atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing OTh4 tetrahedra. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded to three Th4+ and one Ce4+ atom to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing OCeTh3 tetrahedra. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded to three Th4+ and one Ce4+ atom to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing OCeTh3 tetrahedra. In the tenth O2- site, O2- is bonded to four Th4+ atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing OTh4 tetrahedra.« less
