Materials Data on Mn2Sn(PO4)3 by Materials Project
Mn2Sn(PO4)3 crystallizes in the trigonal R-3c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Mn+2.50+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted MnO6 pentagonal pyramids that share corners with six equivalent PO4 tetrahedra and a faceface with one SnO6 octahedra. There are three shorter (2.01 Å) and three longer (2.23 Å) Mn–O bond lengths. Sn4+ is bonded to six equivalent O2- atoms to form distorted SnO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent PO4 tetrahedra and faces with two equivalent MnO6 pentagonal pyramids. All Sn–O bond lengths are 2.14 Å. P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent SnO6 octahedra and corners with four equivalent MnO6 pentagonal pyramids. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 38°. There is two shorter (1.51 Å) and two longer (1.59 Å) P–O bond length. There are two inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Mn+2.50+ and one P5+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Mn+2.50+, one Sn4+, and one P5+ atom.
