Title: Materials Data on Zn3(PO6)2 by Materials Project

Abstract

Zn3(PO6)2 crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Zn sites. In the first Zn site, Zn is bonded to six O atoms to form ZnO6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent ZnO4 tetrahedra and corners with two equivalent PO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Zn–O bond distances ranging from 2.01–2.16 Å. In the second Zn site, Zn is bonded to four O atoms to form ZnO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one ZnO6 octahedra and corners with four equivalent PO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 65°. There are a spread of Zn–O bond distances ranging from 1.95–2.00 Å. P is bonded to four O atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one ZnO6 octahedra and corners with four equivalent ZnO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 53°. There is three shorter (1.54 Å) and one longer (1.58 Å) P–O bond length. There are six inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one Zn and one P atom. In the second O site, O is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry tomore » one Zn and one P atom. In the third O site, O is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to two Zn and one P atom. In the fourth O site, O is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Zn and one P atom. In the fifth O site, O is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Zn atom. In the sixth O site, O is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Zn atom.« less
