Materials Data on ZnCr(GeO3)2 by Materials Project
Abstract
CrZn(GeO3)2 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Cr2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form CrO6 octahedra that share corners with six GeO4 tetrahedra, edges with two equivalent CrO6 octahedra, and edges with three equivalent ZnO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Cr–O bond distances ranging from 2.06–2.37 Å. Zn2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form ZnO6 octahedra that share corners with six GeO4 tetrahedra, edges with three equivalent CrO6 octahedra, and an edgeedge with one GeO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Zn–O bond distances ranging from 2.05–2.36 Å. There are two inequivalent Ge4+ sites. In the first Ge4+ site, Ge4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form GeO4 tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent CrO6 octahedra, corners with four equivalent ZnO6 octahedra, and corners with two equivalent GeO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 52–69°. There are a spread of Ge–O bond distances ranging from 1.74–1.85 Å. In the second Ge4+ site, Ge4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form GeO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent ZnO6 octahedra, corners with three equivalent CrO6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent GeO4 tetrahedra, and an edgeedgemore »
