Title: Materials Data on Sr2CaI6 by Materials Project

Abstract

Sr2CaI6 is zeta iron carbide-derived structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pbcn space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Sr2+ sites. In the first Sr2+ site, Sr2+ is bonded to six I1- atoms to form SrI6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent SrI6 octahedra, corners with six equivalent CaI6 octahedra, and edges with two equivalent SrI6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 49–54°. There are two shorter (3.30 Å) and four longer (3.32 Å) Sr–I bond lengths. In the second Sr2+ site, Sr2+ is bonded to six I1- atoms to form SrI6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent CaI6 octahedra, corners with six SrI6 octahedra, and edges with two equivalent CaI6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 50–54°. There are two shorter (3.28 Å) and four longer (3.31 Å) Sr–I bond lengths. Ca2+ is bonded to six I1- atoms to form CaI6 octahedra that share corners with eight SrI6 octahedra and edges with two equivalent SrI6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 49–50°. There are two shorter (3.15 Å) and four longer (3.18 Å) Ca–I bond lengths. There are three inequivalent I1- sites. In the first I1- site, I1-more » is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two equivalent Sr2+ and one Ca2+ atom. In the second I1- site, I1- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two equivalent Sr2+ and one Ca2+ atom. In the third I1- site, I1- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two Sr2+ and one Ca2+ atom.« less
