Title: Materials Data on KTlF4 by Materials Project

Abstract

KTlF4 crystallizes in the trigonal P3_1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent K1+ sites. In the first K1+ site, K1+ is bonded to eight F1- atoms to form distorted KF8 hexagonal bipyramids that share a cornercorner with one TlF7 pentagonal bipyramid, edges with two equivalent KF8 hexagonal bipyramids, and edges with six TlF7 pentagonal bipyramids. There are a spread of K–F bond distances ranging from 2.59–2.95 Å. In the second K1+ site, K1+ is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to nine F1- atoms. There are a spread of K–F bond distances ranging from 2.63–3.24 Å. There are two inequivalent Tl3+ sites. In the first Tl3+ site, Tl3+ is bonded to seven F1- atoms to form TlF7 pentagonal bipyramids that share a cornercorner with one KF8 hexagonal bipyramid, corners with three equivalent TlF7 pentagonal bipyramids, edges with three equivalent KF8 hexagonal bipyramids, and an edgeedge with one TlF7 pentagonal bipyramid. There are a spread of Tl–F bond distances ranging from 2.14–2.40 Å. In the second Tl3+ site, Tl3+ is bonded to seven F1- atoms to form TlF7 pentagonal bipyramids that share corners with five TlF7 pentagonal bipyramids, edges with three equivalent KF8 hexagonal bipyramids, and an edgeedgemore » with one TlF7 pentagonal bipyramid. There are a spread of Tl–F bond distances ranging from 2.22–2.35 Å. There are eight inequivalent F1- sites. In the first F1- site, F1- is bonded to two equivalent K1+ and two Tl3+ atoms to form distorted FK2Tl2 tetrahedra that share corners with six FK2Tl2 tetrahedra and edges with two equivalent FK3Tl tetrahedra. In the second F1- site, F1- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one K1+ and two Tl3+ atoms. In the third F1- site, F1- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two K1+ and two equivalent Tl3+ atoms. In the fourth F1- site, F1- is bonded to three K1+ and one Tl3+ atom to form distorted FK3Tl tetrahedra that share corners with eight FK2Tl2 tetrahedra and an edgeedge with one FK3Tl tetrahedra. In the fifth F1- site, F1- is bonded to three K1+ and one Tl3+ atom to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing FK3Tl tetrahedra. In the sixth F1- site, F1- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two K1+ and two Tl3+ atoms. In the seventh F1- site, F1- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent K1+ and two Tl3+ atoms. In the eighth F1- site, F1- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two K1+ and two Tl3+ atoms.« less
