Materials Data on BaBO3 by Materials Project

Abstract

BaBO3 is (Cubic) Perovskite structured and crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ba is bonded to twelve equivalent O atoms to form BaO12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent BaO12 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent BaO12 cuboctahedra, and faces with eight equivalent BO6 octahedra. All Ba–O bond lengths are 2.67 Å. B is bonded to six equivalent O atoms to form BO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent BO6 octahedra and faces with eight equivalent BaO12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°. All B–O bond lengths are 1.89 Å. O is bonded to four equivalent Ba and two equivalent B atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge, face, and corner-sharing OBa4B2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–60°.
