Title: Materials Data on Sm4ZrO8 by Materials Project

Abstract

Sm4ZrO8 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Immm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Sm3+ sites. In the first Sm3+ site, Sm3+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six O2- atoms. There are a spread of Sm–O bond distances ranging from 2.26–2.52 Å. In the second Sm3+ site, Sm3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing SmO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 55°. There are a spread of Sm–O bond distances ranging from 2.19–2.45 Å. Zr4+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are four shorter (2.26 Å) and four longer (2.33 Å) Zr–O bond lengths. There are four inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded to four Sm3+ atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing OSm4 tetrahedra. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded to four equivalent Sm3+ atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing OSm4 tetrahedra. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded to two equivalent Sm3+ and two equivalent Zr4+ atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing OSm2Zr2 tetrahedra. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bondedmore » to two equivalent Sm3+ and two equivalent Zr4+ atoms to form OSm2Zr2 tetrahedra that share corners with fourteen OSm4 tetrahedra and edges with five OSm2Zr2 tetrahedra.« less
