Materials Data on U2O5 by Materials Project
Abstract
U2O5 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are four inequivalent U5+ sites. In the first U5+ site, U5+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form UO6 octahedra that share corners with six UO6 octahedra, a cornercorner with one UO7 pentagonal bipyramid, and an edgeedge with one UO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 6–68°. There are a spread of U–O bond distances ranging from 2.06–2.31 Å. In the second U5+ site, U5+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing UO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 2–56°. There are a spread of U–O bond distances ranging from 2.08–2.33 Å. In the third U5+ site, U5+ is bonded to seven O2- atoms to form UO7 pentagonal bipyramids that share corners with three UO6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent UO7 pentagonal bipyramids, an edgeedge with one UO6 octahedra, and edges with two equivalent UO7 pentagonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 22–51°. There are a spread of U–O bond distances ranging from 2.08–2.39 Å. In the fourth U5+ site, U5+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted UO6 octahedra thatmore »
