Materials Data on K2LiCeBr6 by Materials Project

Abstract

K2LiCeBr6 is (Cubic) Perovskite-derived structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. K1+ is bonded to twelve equivalent Br1- atoms to form KBr12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent KBr12 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent KBr12 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent LiBr6 octahedra, and faces with four equivalent CeBr6 octahedra. All K–Br bond lengths are 3.97 Å. Li1+ is bonded to six equivalent Br1- atoms to form LiBr6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent CeBr6 octahedra and faces with eight equivalent KBr12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°. All Li–Br bond lengths are 2.72 Å. Ce3+ is bonded to six equivalent Br1- atoms to form CeBr6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent LiBr6 octahedra and faces with eight equivalent KBr12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°. All Ce–Br bond lengths are 2.89 Å. Br1- is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to four equivalent K1+, one Li1+, and one Ce3+ atom.
