Materials Data on K3La(AsO4)2 by Materials Project

Abstract

K3La(AsO4)2 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent K1+ sites. In the first K1+ site, K1+ is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to nine O2- atoms. There are a spread of K–O bond distances ranging from 2.69–3.24 Å. In the second K1+ site, K1+ is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to eleven O2- atoms. There are a spread of K–O bond distances ranging from 2.68–3.38 Å. In the third K1+ site, K1+ is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to ten O2- atoms. There are a spread of K–O bond distances ranging from 2.68–3.20 Å. La3+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of La–O bond distances ranging from 2.40–2.93 Å. There are two inequivalent As5+ sites. In the first As5+ site, As5+ is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to four O2- atoms. There are a spread of As–O bond distances ranging from 1.70–1.74 Å. In the second As5+ site, As5+ is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to four O2- atoms. There is two shorter (1.72 Å) and two longer (1.73 Å) As–O bond length. There are eight inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to five K1+ and one As5+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one K1+, two equivalent La3+, and one As5+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to four K1+, one La3+, and one As5+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to four K1+, one La3+, and one As5+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to four K1+, one La3+, and one As5+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to four K1+, one La3+, and one As5+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to four K1+, one La3+, and one As5+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to four K1+, one La3+, and one As5+ atom.
