Materials Data on Cs2CeAgCl6 by Materials Project

Abstract

Cs2CeAgCl6 is (Cubic) Perovskite-derived structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Cs1+ is bonded to twelve equivalent Cl1- atoms to form CsCl12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent CsCl12 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent CsCl12 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent CeCl6 octahedra, and faces with four equivalent AgCl6 octahedra. All Cs–Cl bond lengths are 3.91 Å. Ce3+ is bonded to six equivalent Cl1- atoms to form CeCl6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent AgCl6 octahedra and faces with eight equivalent CsCl12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°. All Ce–Cl bond lengths are 2.75 Å. Ag1+ is bonded to six equivalent Cl1- atoms to form AgCl6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent CeCl6 octahedra and faces with eight equivalent CsCl12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°. All Ag–Cl bond lengths are 2.77 Å. Cl1- is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to four equivalent Cs1+, one Ce3+, and one Ag1+ atom.
