Title: Materials Data on Pr3GePO9 by Materials Project

Abstract

Pr3GePO9 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Pr3+ sites. In the first Pr3+ site, Pr3+ is bonded to seven O2- atoms to form distorted PrO7 pentagonal bipyramids that share a cornercorner with one PO4 tetrahedra, corners with two equivalent GeO4 tetrahedra, an edgeedge with one PrO7 pentagonal bipyramid, and an edgeedge with one PO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Pr–O bond distances ranging from 2.37–2.62 Å. In the second Pr3+ site, Pr3+ is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Pr–O bond distances ranging from 2.42–3.01 Å. In the third Pr3+ site, Pr3+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Pr–O bond distances ranging from 2.45–2.65 Å. Ge4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form GeO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent PrO7 pentagonal bipyramids. There are a spread of Ge–O bond distances ranging from 1.75–1.81 Å. P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one PrO7 pentagonal bipyramid and an edgeedge with one PrO7 pentagonal bipyramid. There is three shorter (1.55 Å) and onemore » longer (1.57 Å) P–O bond length. There are nine inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to three Pr3+ and one Ge4+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to two Pr3+ and one P5+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to two Pr3+ and one P5+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to three Pr3+ and one P5+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to two Pr3+ and one P5+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two Pr3+ and one Ge4+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two Pr3+ and one Ge4+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to three Pr3+ and one Ge4+ atom. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded to four Pr3+ atoms to form edge-sharing OPr4 tetrahedra.« less
