Abstract

TbCeO4 is Fluorite-derived structured and crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are four inequivalent Tb4+ sites. In the first Tb4+ site, Tb4+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Tb–O bond distances ranging from 2.34–2.41 Å. In the second Tb4+ site, Tb4+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Tb–O bond distances ranging from 2.33–2.42 Å. In the third Tb4+ site, Tb4+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Tb–O bond distances ranging from 2.35–2.41 Å. In the fourth Tb4+ site, Tb4+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Tb–O bond distances ranging from 2.34–2.40 Å. There are four inequivalent Ce4+ sites. In the first Ce4+ site, Ce4+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ce–O bond distances ranging from 2.34–2.39 Å. In the second Ce4+ site, Ce4+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ce–O bond distances ranging from 2.33–2.38 Å. In the third Ce4+ site, Ce4+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ce–O bond distances ranging from 2.33–2.38 Å. In the fourth Ce4+ site, Ce4+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ce–O bond distances ranging from 2.33–2.38 Å. There are sixteen inequivalent O2- sites.
