Materials Data on HoHO2 by Materials Project
HoOOH crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Ho3+ sites. In the first Ho3+ site, Ho3+ is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to seven O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ho–O bond distances ranging from 2.26–2.45 Å. In the second Ho3+ site, Ho3+ is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to seven O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ho–O bond distances ranging from 2.26–2.45 Å. There are two inequivalent H1+ sites. In the first H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- atom. The H–O bond length is 0.97 Å. In the second H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- atom. The H–O bond length is 0.97 Å. There are four inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded to four Ho3+ atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing OHo4 tetrahedra. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded to four Ho3+ atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing OHo4 tetrahedra. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to three Ho3+ and one H1+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to three Ho3+ and one H1+ atom.
