Materials Data on RbMgBO3 by Materials Project
RbMgBO3 crystallizes in the cubic P2_13 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Rb1+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent O2- atoms. There are three shorter (2.88 Å) and three longer (2.95 Å) Rb–O bond lengths. Mg2+ is bonded to six equivalent O2- atoms to form distorted corner-sharing MgO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 12°. There are three shorter (2.14 Å) and three longer (2.19 Å) Mg–O bond lengths. B3+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent O2- atoms. All B–O bond lengths are 1.39 Å. O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Rb1+, two equivalent Mg2+, and one B3+ atom.
