Materials Data on Ba4CaCu6(HgO8)2 by Materials Project
Ba4CaCu6(HgO8)2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pmm2 space group. The structure is two-dimensional and consists of one Ba4CaCu6(HgO8)2 sheet oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction. there are four inequivalent Ba2+ sites. In the first Ba2+ site, Ba2+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ba–O bond distances ranging from 2.67–2.85 Å. In the second Ba2+ site, Ba2+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ba–O bond distances ranging from 2.67–2.84 Å. In the third Ba2+ site, Ba2+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ba–O bond distances ranging from 2.65–2.82 Å. In the fourth Ba2+ site, Ba2+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ba–O bond distances ranging from 2.58–2.85 Å. Ca2+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ca–O bond distances ranging from 2.35–2.46 Å. There are three inequivalent Cu3+ sites. In the first Cu3+ site, Cu3+ is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four O2- atoms. All Cu–O bond lengths are 1.90 Å. In the second Cu3+ site, Cu3+ is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four O2- atoms. There are a spread of Cu–O bond distances ranging from 1.82–1.96 Å. In the third Cu3+ site, Cu3+ is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four O2- atoms. There are a spread of Cu–O bond distances ranging from 1.83–1.93 Å. Hg2+ is bonded in a linear geometry to two O2- atoms. Both Hg–O bond lengths are 2.00 Å. There are eleven inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to one Ca2+ and two equivalent Cu3+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted see-saw-like geometry to two equivalent Ca2+ and two equivalent Cu3+ atoms. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent Cu3+ atoms. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to four Ba2+ and one Hg2+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to four Ba2+ and one Hg2+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to two Ba2+, one Ca2+, and two equivalent Cu3+ atoms. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two Ba2+ and two equivalent Cu3+ atoms. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ba2+, two equivalent Ca2+, and two equivalent Cu3+ atoms. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded to two equivalent Ba2+ and two equivalent Cu3+ atoms to form distorted corner-sharing OBa2Cu2 trigonal pyramids. In the tenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ba2+ and two equivalent Cu3+ atoms. In the eleventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ba2+ and two equivalent Cu3+ atoms.
