Materials Data on ScBO3 by Materials Project
ScBO3 is Calcite structured and crystallizes in the trigonal R-3c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Sc3+ is bonded to six equivalent O2- atoms to form corner-sharing ScO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 56°. All Sc–O bond lengths are 2.15 Å. 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 trigonal planar geometry to two equivalent Sc3+ and one B3+ atom.
