Materials Data on Nb2Ge2O7 by Materials Project
Abstract
Nb2Ge2O7 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are four inequivalent Nb3+ sites. In the first Nb3+ site, Nb3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form corner-sharing NbO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 21–30°. There are a spread of Nb–O bond distances ranging from 1.88–2.21 Å. In the second Nb3+ site, Nb3+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six O2- atoms. There are a spread of Nb–O bond distances ranging from 1.83–2.45 Å. In the third Nb3+ site, Nb3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted corner-sharing NbO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 21–31°. There are a spread of Nb–O bond distances ranging from 1.84–2.29 Å. In the fourth Nb3+ site, Nb3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted corner-sharing NbO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 5–31°. There are a spread of Nb–O bond distances ranging from 1.84–2.33 Å. There are four inequivalent Ge4+ sites. In the first Ge4+ site, Ge4+ is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to three O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ge–O bond distances ranging from 1.89–2.21 Å. In the second Ge4+ site, Ge4+more »
