Materials Data on Ba2CaV2CoF14 by Materials Project

Abstract

Ba2CaV2CoF14 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ba2+ is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to twelve F1- atoms. There are a spread of Ba–F bond distances ranging from 2.67–3.29 Å. Ca2+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight F1- atoms. There are a spread of Ca–F bond distances ranging from 2.25–2.62 Å. V3+ is bonded to six F1- atoms to form VF6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent CoF6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 49–53°. There are a spread of V–F bond distances ranging from 1.93–2.03 Å. Co2+ is bonded to six F1- atoms to form CoF6 octahedra that share corners with four equivalent VF6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 49–53°. There are a spread of Co–F bond distances ranging from 2.02–2.17 Å. There are seven inequivalent F1- sites. In the first F1- site, F1- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ba2+, one Ca2+, and one V3+ atom. In the second F1- site, F1- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to two equivalent Ba2+, one V3+, and one Co2+ atom. In the third F1- site, F1- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Ba2+, one Ca2+, and one V3+ atom. In the fourth F1- site, F1- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to three equivalent Ba2+ and one V3+ atom. In the fifth F1- site, F1- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Ba2+, one Ca2+, and one Co2+ atom. In the sixth F1- site, F1- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ba2+, one Ca2+, and one V3+ atom. In the seventh F1- site, F1- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Ba2+, one V3+, and one Co2+ atom.
