Materials Data on CsSb(PO4)2 by Materials Project
CsSb(PO4)2 crystallizes in the trigonal P-3 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Cs1+ is bonded to six equivalent O2- atoms to form distorted CsO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent PO4 tetrahedra and edges with six equivalent CsO6 octahedra. All Cs–O bond lengths are 3.18 Å. Sb5+ is bonded to six equivalent O2- atoms to form SbO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent PO4 tetrahedra. All Sb–O bond lengths are 1.99 Å. P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent CsO6 octahedra and corners with three equivalent SbO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 42–63°. There is one shorter (1.49 Å) and three longer (1.58 Å) P–O bond length. There are two inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to three equivalent Cs1+ and one P5+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Sb5+ and one P5+ atom.
