Materials Data on BaSr7Mn2(FeO4)6 by Materials Project

Abstract

BaSr7Mn2(FeO4)6 is (Cubic) Perovskite-derived structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Amm2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ba2+ is bonded to twelve O2- atoms to form BaO12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve SrO12 cuboctahedra, faces with six SrO12 cuboctahedra, faces with two equivalent MnO6 octahedra, and faces with six FeO6 octahedra. There are eight shorter (2.82 Å) and four longer (2.83 Å) Ba–O bond lengths. There are five inequivalent Sr2+ sites. In the first Sr2+ site, Sr2+ is bonded to twelve O2- atoms to form SrO12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve SrO12 cuboctahedra, faces with two equivalent BaO12 cuboctahedra, faces with four SrO12 cuboctahedra, faces with two equivalent MnO6 octahedra, and faces with six FeO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Sr–O bond distances ranging from 2.77–2.79 Å.

There are a spread of Sr–O bond distances ranging from 2.76–2.78 Å. In the fifth Sr2+ site, Sr2+ is bonded to twelve O2- atoms to form SrO12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve SrO12 cuboctahedra, faces with two equivalent BaO12 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent SrO12 cuboctahedra, faces with two equivalent MnO6 octahedra, and faces with six FeO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Sr–O bond distances ranging from 2.77–2.80 Å. Mn7+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form MnO6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent MnO6 octahedra, corners with four equivalent FeO6 octahedra, a faceface with one BaO12 cuboctahedra, and faces with seven SrO12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–2°. There are a spread of Mn–O bond distances ranging from 1.94–1.97 Å. There are two inequivalent Fe3+ sites. In the first Fe3+ site, Fe3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form FeO6 octahedra that share corners with six FeO6 octahedra, a faceface with one BaO12 cuboctahedra, and faces with seven SrO12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–2°. There are a spread of Fe–O bond distances ranging from 1.95–1.98 Å. In the second Fe3+ site, Fe3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form FeO6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent MnO6 octahedra, corners with four FeO6 octahedra, a faceface with one BaO12 cuboctahedra, and faces with seven SrO12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–2°. There are a spread of Fe–O bond distances ranging from 1.95–2.00 Å. There are ten inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to one Ba2+, three Sr2+, and two equivalent Fe3+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to one Ba2+, three Sr2+, and two equivalent Fe3+ atoms.
