Materials Data on YbTiO3 by Materials Project

YbTiO3 is Ilmenite structured and crystallizes in the trigonal R-3 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Yb2+ is bonded to six equivalent O2- atoms to form distorted YbO6 pentagonal pyramids that share corners with nine equivalent TiO6 octahedra, edges with three equivalent YbO6 pentagonal pyramids, and a faceface with one TiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 38–64°. There are three shorter (2.28 Å) and three longer (2.37 Å) Yb–O bond lengths. Ti4+ is bonded to six equivalent O2- atoms to form distorted TiO6 octahedra that share corners with nine equivalent YbO6 pentagonal pyramids, edges with three equivalent TiO6 octahedra, and a faceface with one YbO6 pentagonal pyramid. There are three shorter (1.89 Å) and three longer (2.13 Å) Ti–O bond lengths. O2- is bonded in a distorted see-saw-like geometry to two equivalent Yb2+ and two equivalent Ti4+ atoms.

Materials Data on YbTiO3 by Materials Project

YbTiO3 is Orthorhombic Perovskite structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Yb2+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Yb–O bond distances ranging from 2.31–2.67 Å. Ti4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form corner-sharing TiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 28–29°. There are a spread of Ti–O bond distances ranging from 1.96–1.98 Å. There are two inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded to two equivalent Yb2+ and two equivalent Ti4+ atoms to form distorted corner-sharing OYb2Ti2 tetrahedra. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Yb2+ and two equivalent Ti4+ atoms.

YbTiO3 is (Cubic) Perovskite structured and crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Yb2+ is bonded to twelve equivalent O2- atoms to form YbO12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent YbO12 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent YbO12 cuboctahedra, and faces with eight equivalent TiO6 octahedra. All Yb–O bond lengths are 2.72 Å. Ti4+ is bonded to six equivalent O2- atoms to form TiO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent TiO6 octahedra and faces with eight equivalent YbO12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°. All Ti–O bond lengths are 1.93 Å. O2- is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to four equivalent Yb2+ and two equivalent Ti4+ atoms.
