Materials Data on BaGa2(GeO4)2 by Materials Project
Abstract
BaGa2Ge2O8 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ba2+ is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to nine O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ba–O bond distances ranging from 2.65–3.26 Å. There are two inequivalent Ga3+ sites. In the first Ga3+ site, Ga3+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form GaO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four GeO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Ga–O bond distances ranging from 1.83–1.87 Å. In the second Ga3+ site, Ga3+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form GaO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four GeO4 tetrahedra. There is two shorter (1.84 Å) and two longer (1.86 Å) Ga–O bond length. There are two inequivalent Ge4+ sites. In the first Ge4+ site, Ge4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form GeO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four GaO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Ge–O bond distances ranging from 1.75–1.79 Å. In the second Ge4+ site, Ge4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form GeO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four GaO4 tetrahedra. There is two shorter (1.76 Å) and two longer (1.77 Å) Ge–O bond length. There are eight inequivalent O2- sites. In the firstmore »
