Materials Data on RbCuF3 by Materials Project
RbCuF3 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mcm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Rb1+ is bonded to twelve F1- atoms to form RbF12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent RbF12 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent RbF12 cuboctahedra, and faces with eight equivalent CuF6 octahedra. There are eight shorter (2.96 Å) and four longer (3.06 Å) Rb–F bond lengths. Cu2+ is bonded to six F1- atoms to form CuF6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent CuF6 octahedra and faces with eight equivalent RbF12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°. There are a spread of Cu–F bond distances ranging from 1.90–2.42 Å. There are two inequivalent F1- sites. In the first F1- site, F1- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Rb1+ and two equivalent Cu2+ atoms. In the second F1- site, F1- is bonded in a linear geometry to four equivalent Rb1+ and two equivalent Cu2+ atoms.
