Materials Data on ZrPbO3 by Materials Project

Abstract

PbZrO3 is Pb(Zr_(1-x)Ti_x)O3-like structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pbam space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Zr4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form corner-sharing ZrO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 8–28°. There are a spread of Zr–O bond distances ranging from 2.08–2.23 Å. There are two inequivalent Pb2+ sites. In the first Pb2+ site, Pb2+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Pb–O bond distances ranging from 2.52–3.04 Å. In the second Pb2+ site, Pb2+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four O2- atoms. There are a spread of Pb–O bond distances ranging from 2.45–2.66 Å. There are five inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Zr4+ and two equivalent Pb2+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to two equivalent Zr4+ and two equivalent Pb2+ atoms. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Zr4+ and two equivalent Pb2+ atoms. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Zr4+ and two equivalent Pb2+ atoms. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Zr4+ and two Pb2+ atoms.
