Materials Data on AlP(HO2)2 by Materials Project
AlPO4H2 is High (Orthorhombic) Tridymite-derived structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional and consists of eight hydrogen molecules and one AlPO4 framework. In the AlPO4 framework, Al3+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form AlO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent PO4 tetrahedra. There is two shorter (1.75 Å) and two longer (1.76 Å) Al–O bond length. P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent AlO4 tetrahedra. There is two shorter (1.53 Å) and two longer (1.54 Å) P–O bond length. There are four inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a linear geometry to one Al3+ and one P5+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a linear geometry to one Al3+ and one P5+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Al3+ and one P5+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Al3+ and one P5+ atom.
