Materials Data on K6Ti2O7 by Materials Project
K6Ti2O7 crystallizes in the monoclinic Pc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are six inequivalent K1+ sites. In the first K1+ site, K1+ is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five O2- atoms. There are a spread of K–O bond distances ranging from 2.70–3.16 Å. In the second K1+ site, K1+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form distorted KO5 square pyramids that share corners with three TiO4 tetrahedra, edges with two equivalent KO5 square pyramids, and an edgeedge with one TiO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of K–O bond distances ranging from 2.69–2.98 Å. In the third K1+ site, K1+ is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five O2- atoms. There are a spread of K–O bond distances ranging from 2.69–3.21 Å. In the fourth K1+ site, K1+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six O2- atoms. There are a spread of K–O bond distances ranging from 2.72–3.23 Å. In the fifth K1+ site, K1+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form distorted KO5 square pyramids that share corners with three TiO4 tetrahedra, edges with two equivalent KO5 square pyramids, and an edgeedge with one TiO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of K–O bond distances ranging from 2.68–3.02 Å. In the sixth K1+ site, K1+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six O2- atoms. There are a spread of K–O bond distances ranging from 2.71–3.16 Å. There are two inequivalent Ti4+ sites. In the first Ti4+ site, Ti4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form TiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with three KO5 square pyramids, a cornercorner with one TiO4 tetrahedra, and an edgeedge with one KO5 square pyramid. There is three shorter (1.82 Å) and one longer (1.91 Å) Ti–O bond length. In the second Ti4+ site, Ti4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form TiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with three KO5 square pyramids, a cornercorner with one TiO4 tetrahedra, and an edgeedge with one KO5 square pyramid. There is three shorter (1.82 Å) and one longer (1.91 Å) Ti–O bond length. There are seven inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to four K1+ and one Ti4+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to five K1+ and one Ti4+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to five K1+ and one Ti4+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to five K1+ and one Ti4+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to five K1+ and one Ti4+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to four K1+ and two Ti4+ atoms. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to four K1+ and one Ti4+ atom.
