Materials Data on CaF2 by Materials Project

CaF2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pmc2_1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ca2+ is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to seven F1- atoms. There are a spread of Ca–F bond distances ranging from 2.22–2.44 Å. There are two inequivalent F1- sites. In the first F1- site, F1- is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four equivalent Ca2+ atoms. In the second F1- site, F1- is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to three equivalent Ca2+ atoms.

Materials Data on CaF3 by Materials Project

CaF3 is alpha bismuth trifluoride structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ca is bonded to twelve F atoms to form a mixture of face, edge, and corner-sharing CaF12 cuboctahedra. There are eight shorter (2.49 Å) and four longer (2.69 Å) Ca–F bond lengths. There are two inequivalent F sites. In the first F site, F is bonded to four equivalent Ca atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing FCa4 tetrahedra. In the second F site, F is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four equivalent Ca atoms.
