Materials Data on Mg3BeAl8O16 by Materials Project
Abstract
BeMg3Al8O16 is Spinel-derived structured and crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3mc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Mg2+ sites. In the first Mg2+ site, Mg2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted MgO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent AlO6 octahedra, corners with three equivalent BeO4 tetrahedra, corners with three equivalent AlO4 tetrahedra, and edges with three equivalent AlO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 56°. There are three shorter (2.04 Å) and three longer (2.22 Å) Mg–O bond lengths. In the second Mg2+ site, Mg2+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form MgO4 tetrahedra that share corners with twelve AlO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 60°. There is three shorter (1.96 Å) and one longer (2.00 Å) Mg–O bond length. In the third Mg2+ site, Mg2+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form MgO4 tetrahedra that share corners with twelve AlO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 58–60°. All Mg–O bond lengths are 1.95 Å. Be2+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form BeO4 tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent MgO6 octahedra, corners with three equivalent AlO6 octahedra, and edges with three equivalent AlO6more »
