Materials Data on ZnCr2O4 by Materials Project
Abstract
ZnCr2O4 crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are four inequivalent Cr3+ sites. In the first Cr3+ site, Cr3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form CrO6 octahedra that share corners with four CrO6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent ZnO5 square pyramids, edges with four CrO6 octahedra, and edges with three ZnO5 square pyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 49–56°. There are a spread of Cr–O bond distances ranging from 1.95–2.18 Å. In the second Cr3+ site, Cr3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form CrO6 octahedra that share corners with four CrO6 octahedra, corners with four ZnO5 square pyramids, edges with four CrO6 octahedra, and a faceface with one ZnO5 square pyramid. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 49–56°. There are a spread of Cr–O bond distances ranging from 1.94–2.20 Å. In the third Cr3+ site, Cr3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form CrO6 octahedra that share corners with four CrO6 octahedra, corners with four ZnO5 square pyramids, edges with four CrO6 octahedra, and a faceface with one ZnO5 square pyramid. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 49–56°. There are a spread of Cr–O bond distancesmore »
