Materials Data on AgBiO2 by Materials Project
AgBiO2 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/m space group. The structure is two-dimensional and consists of one AgBiO2 sheet oriented in the (1, 0, 0) direction. Ag1+ is bonded in a linear geometry to two O2- atoms. There are one shorter (2.10 Å) and one longer (2.12 Å) Ag–O bond lengths. Bi3+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form distorted edge-sharing BiO5 square pyramids. There are a spread of Bi–O bond distances ranging from 2.16–2.49 Å. There are two inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to one Ag1+ and two equivalent Bi3+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded to one Ag1+ and three equivalent Bi3+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing OAgBi3 tetrahedra.
