Antimony stable isotope fractionation during adsorption onto birnessite: A molecular perspective from X-ray absorption spectroscopy and density functional theory

Sorption of antimony (Sb) onto birnessite significantly influences the fate of Sb in oceanic and terrestrial environments and fractionates Sb isotopes. Nevertheless, little is known about Sb isotopic fractionation during its adsorption on birnessite. Here, in this study, we show the value of Δ 123 Sb adsorbed-aqueous increases from −0.398 to −0.332 ‰ in 1 h and then decreases and stabilizes at −0.384 ‰ in 72 h. The enrichment of the light Sb isotope is predominantly due to the distortion of the octahedral symmetry. X-ray absorption spectroscopy results indicate Sb first forms a double-corner-sharing complex on birnessite and then transforms to a double-edge-sharing complex during adsorption. The optimized bond distances for double-corner-sharing (3.37 Å) and double-edge-sharing (2.90 Å) complexes calculated using density functional theory (DFT) fits well with the structure (3.41 and 3.00 Å) revealed by X-ray absorption spectroscopy, respectively. The fractionation derived from reduced partition function ratios calculated using DFT aligns well with the experimental results. Therefore, the variation in Sb isotopic fractionation during adsorption is attributed to the evolving structure of Sb complexes on birnessite. Our results demonstrate the isotopic fractionation of Sb during adsorption on birnessite and provide a molecular-scale understanding of Sb behavior, contributing to the correct reconstruction of the Sb isotope composition of ancient seawater using ferromanganese crusts and nodules, and efforts to trace Sb migration in epigenetic mining environments.

When van der Waals Met Kagome: A 2D Antimonide with a Vanadium-Kagome Network

2D materials showcase unconventional properties emerging from quantum confinement effects. In this work, a “soft chemical” route allows for the deintercalation of K + from the layered antimonide KV 6 Sb 6 , resulting in the discovery of a new metastable 2D-Kagome antimonide K 0.1(1) V 6 Sb 6 with a van der Waals gap of 3.2 Å. The structure of K 0.1(1) V 6 Sb 6 was determined via the synergistic techniques, including X-ray pair distribution function analysis, advanced transmission electron microscopy, and density functional theory calculations. The K 0.1(1) V 6 Sb 6 compound crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/m (a = 9.57(2) Å, b = 5.502(8) Å, c = 10.23(2) Å, β = 97.6(2)°, Z = 2). The [V 6 Sb 6 ] layers in K 0.1(1) V 6 Sb 6 are retained upon deintercalation and closely resemble the layers in the parent compound, yet deintercalation results in a relative shift of the adjacent [V 6 Sb 6 ] layers. The magnetic properties of the K 0.1(1) V 6 Sb 6 phase in the 2–300 K range are comparable to those of KV 6 Sb 6 and another Kagome antimonide KV 3 Sb 5 , consistent with nearly temperature-independent paramagnetism. Electronic band structure calculation suggests a nontrivial band topology with flat bands and opening of band crossing afforded by deintercalation. Transport property measurements reveal a metallic nature for K 0.1(1) V 6 Sb 6 and a low thermal conductivity of 0.6 W K –1 m –1 at 300 K. Additionally, ion exchange in KV 6 Sb 6 via a solvothermal route leads to a successful partial exchange of K + with A + (A = Na, Rb, and Cs). Here, this study highlights the tunability of the layered structure of the KV 6 Sb 6 compound, providing a rich playground for the realization of new 2D materials.
