Materials Data on La2ZnSbO6 by Materials Project

Abstract

La2ZnSbO6 crystallizes in the trigonal R-3 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. La+2.50+ is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to nine equivalent O2- atoms. There are a spread of La–O bond distances ranging from 2.37–2.96 Å. Zn2+ is bonded to six equivalent O2- atoms to form ZnO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent SbO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 31°. All Zn–O bond lengths are 2.14 Å. Sb5+ is bonded to six equivalent O2- atoms to form SbO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent ZnO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 31°. All Sb–O bond lengths are 2.13 Å. O2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to three equivalent La+2.50+, one Zn2+, and one Sb5+ atom.
