Title: Materials Data on Fe3O4 by Materials Project

Abstract

Fe3O4 is Hausmannite structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pbcm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are six inequivalent Fe+2.67+ sites. In the first Fe+2.67+ site, Fe+2.67+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form FeO6 octahedra that share corners with six FeO4 tetrahedra and edges with six FeO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Fe–O bond distances ranging from 2.09–2.17 Å. In the second Fe+2.67+ site, Fe+2.67+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form FeO6 octahedra that share corners with six FeO4 tetrahedra and edges with six FeO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Fe–O bond distances ranging from 2.01–2.12 Å. In the third Fe+2.67+ site, Fe+2.67+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form FeO6 octahedra that share corners with six FeO4 tetrahedra and edges with six FeO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Fe–O bond distances ranging from 2.04–2.07 Å. In the fourth Fe+2.67+ site, Fe+2.67+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form FeO6 octahedra that share corners with six FeO4 tetrahedra and edges with six FeO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Fe–O bond distances ranging from 2.11–2.19 Å. In the fifth Fe+2.67+ site, Fe+2.67+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to formmore » corner-sharing FeO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 51–62°. There are a spread of Fe–O bond distances ranging from 1.91–1.98 Å. In the sixth Fe+2.67+ site, Fe+2.67+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form corner-sharing FeO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 51–60°. There are a spread of Fe–O bond distances ranging from 1.91–1.96 Å. There are six inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four Fe+2.67+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four Fe+2.67+ atoms. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded to four Fe+2.67+ atoms to form distorted corner-sharing OFe4 trigonal pyramids. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four Fe+2.67+ atoms. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four Fe+2.67+ atoms. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four Fe+2.67+ atoms.« less
