Materials Data on KGa(PO3)4 by Materials Project
KGa(PO3)4 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. K1+ is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to ten O2- atoms. There are a spread of K–O bond distances ranging from 2.78–3.43 Å. Ga3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form GaO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Ga–O bond distances ranging from 1.95–2.01 Å. There are two inequivalent P5+ sites. In the first P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one GaO6 octahedra and corners with two PO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 43°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.48–1.63 Å. In the second P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent GaO6 octahedra and corners with two PO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 46–47°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.50–1.60 Å. There are seven inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to two P5+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two equivalent P5+ atoms. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one K1+, one Ga3+, and one P5+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one K1+, one Ga3+, and one P5+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to three equivalent K1+ and one P5+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Ga3+ and one P5+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two equivalent P5+ atoms.
