Materials Data on VSb2O5 by Materials Project

Abstract

VOSb2O4 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. V4+ is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five O2- atoms. There are a spread of V–O bond distances ranging from 1.65–2.02 Å. Sb3+ is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four O2- atoms. There are a spread of Sb–O bond distances ranging from 2.03–2.57 Å. There are three inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two equivalent V4+ and one Sb3+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent Sb3+ atoms. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one V4+ atom.
