Materials Data on MgBeAl4O8 by Materials Project
Abstract
MgBeAl4O8 is Spinel-derived structured and crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3mc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Mg2+ sites. In the first 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 58–59°. All Mg–O bond lengths are 1.91 Å. 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 octahedra tilt angles range from 59–60°. All Mg–O bond lengths are 1.91 Å. There are two inequivalent Be2+ sites. In the first Be2+ site, Be2+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form BeO4 tetrahedra that share corners with twelve AlO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 57°. There is one shorter (1.77 Å) and three longer (1.81 Å) Be–O bond length. In the second Be2+ site, Be2+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form BeO4 tetrahedra that share corners with six AlO6 octahedra and edges with three equivalent AlO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 58–60°. There is one shorter (1.61 Å) and three longer (1.71 Å) Be–O bond length.more »

The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 58–60°. There is one shorter (1.61 Å) and three longer (1.71 Å) Be–O bond length. There are four inequivalent Al3+ sites. In the first Al3+ site, Al3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form AlO6 octahedra that share corners with three MgO4 tetrahedra, corners with three BeO4 tetrahedra, and edges with six AlO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Al–O bond distances ranging from 1.88–1.98 Å.

There is three shorter (1.89 Å) and three longer (1.97 Å) Al–O bond length. There are eight inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to one Be2+ and three Al3+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded to one Be2+ and three equivalent Al3+ atoms to form distorted corner-sharing OBeAl3 tetrahedra. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to one Be2+ and three Al3+ atoms.

In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded to one Mg2+ and three equivalent Al3+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing OMgAl3 trigonal pyramids. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded to one Mg2+ and three Al3+ atoms to form distorted OMgAl3 tetrahedra that share corners with four OBeAl3 tetrahedra, a cornercorner with one OMgAl3 trigonal pyramid, edges with two equivalent OMgAl3 tetrahedra, and an edgeedge with one OMgAl3 trigonal pyramid.
