Title: Materials Data on Mn2PO5 by Materials Project

Abstract

Mn2PO5 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Mn+2.50+ sites. In the first Mn+2.50+ site, Mn+2.50+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form MnO6 octahedra that share corners with four equivalent PO4 tetrahedra and edges with two equivalent MnO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Mn–O bond distances ranging from 2.07–2.25 Å. In the second Mn+2.50+ site, Mn+2.50+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six O2- atoms. There are a spread of Mn–O bond distances ranging from 2.02–2.54 Å. P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent MnO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 49–52°. There is one shorter (1.51 Å) and three longer (1.57 Å) P–O bond length. There are four inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Mn+2.50+ and one P5+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded to four Mn+2.50+ atoms to form distorted corner-sharing OMn4 trigonal pyramids. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two Mn+2.50+ and one P5+ atom. In the fourth O2- site,more » O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to three Mn+2.50+ and one P5+ atom.« less
