Title: Materials Data on Sn4(PO4)3 by Materials Project

Abstract

Sn4(PO4)3 crystallizes in the trigonal R3c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Sn+2.25+ sites. In the first Sn+2.25+ site, Sn+2.25+ is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to three O2- atoms. There are a spread of Sn–O bond distances ranging from 2.08–2.11 Å. In the second Sn+2.25+ site, Sn+2.25+ is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to three equivalent O2- atoms. All Sn–O bond lengths are 2.15 Å. P5+ is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to four O2- atoms. There is two shorter (1.55 Å) and two longer (1.56 Å) P–O bond length. There are four inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Sn+2.25+ and one P5+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one Sn+2.25+ and one P5+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Sn+2.25+ and one P5+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Sn+2.25+ and one P5+ atom.
