Materials Data on Na2HoPWO8 by Materials Project

Abstract

Na2HoWPO8 is Esseneite-derived structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Ibca space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Na1+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to six O2- atoms. There are a spread of Na–O bond distances ranging from 2.29–2.95 Å. Ho3+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ho–O bond distances ranging from 2.28–2.45 Å. W6+ is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to four O2- atoms. There is two shorter (1.81 Å) and two longer (1.83 Å) W–O bond length. P5+ is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to four O2- atoms. There is two shorter (1.55 Å) and two longer (1.56 Å) P–O bond length. There are four inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Na1+ and one W6+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Na1+, one Ho3+, and one P5+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one Na1+, two equivalent Ho3+, and one P5+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Na1+, one Ho3+, and one W6+ atom.
