Materials Data on Cs2TaTlF6 by Materials Project

Abstract

Cs2TaTlF6 crystallizes in the cubic Fm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Cs1+ is bonded to twelve equivalent F1- atoms to form CsF12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent CsF12 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent CsF12 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent TaF6 octahedra, and faces with four equivalent TlF6 octahedra. All Cs–F bond lengths are 3.45 Å. Ta3+ is bonded to six equivalent F1- atoms to form TaF6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent TlF6 octahedra and faces with eight equivalent CsF12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°. All Ta–F bond lengths are 2.07 Å. Tl1+ is bonded to six equivalent F1- atoms to form TlF6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent TaF6 octahedra and faces with eight equivalent CsF12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°. All Tl–F bond lengths are 2.79 Å. F1- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Cs1+, one Ta3+, and one Tl1+ atom.
