Materials Data on K3W by Materials Project
K3W is alpha bismuth trifluoride structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent K sites. In the first K site, K is bonded to four equivalent K and four equivalent W atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner, edge, and face-sharing KK4W4 tetrahedra. All K–K bond lengths are 3.91 Å. All K–W bond lengths are 3.91 Å. In the second K site, K is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent K atoms. W is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent K atoms.
