Materials Data on VAg3O4 by Materials Project

Abstract

Ag3VO4 crystallizes in the tetragonal I-42m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. V5+ is bonded to four equivalent O2- atoms to form VO4 tetrahedra that share corners with twelve AgO4 tetrahedra. All V–O bond lengths are 1.76 Å. There are two inequivalent Ag1+ sites. In the first Ag1+ site, Ag1+ is bonded to four equivalent O2- atoms to form AgO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent VO4 tetrahedra and corners with eight AgO4 tetrahedra. All Ag–O bond lengths are 2.35 Å. In the second Ag1+ site, Ag1+ is bonded to four equivalent O2- atoms to form distorted AgO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent VO4 tetrahedra and corners with eight equivalent AgO4 tetrahedra. All Ag–O bond lengths are 2.37 Å. O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one V5+ and three Ag1+ atoms.
