Materials Data on KCaCl3 by Materials Project

KCaCl3 is Ilmenite structured and crystallizes in the trigonal R-3 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. K1+ is bonded to six equivalent Cl1- atoms to form distorted KCl6 octahedra that share corners with nine equivalent CaCl6 octahedra, edges with three equivalent KCl6 octahedra, and a faceface with one CaCl6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 38–61°. There are three shorter (3.11 Å) and three longer (3.26 Å) K–Cl bond lengths. Ca2+ is bonded to six equivalent Cl1- atoms to form CaCl6 octahedra that share corners with nine equivalent KCl6 octahedra, edges with three equivalent CaCl6 octahedra, and a faceface with one KCl6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 38–61°. There are three shorter (2.75 Å) and three longer (2.79 Å) Ca–Cl bond lengths. Cl1- is bonded in a distorted see-saw-like geometry to two equivalent K1+ and two equivalent Ca2+ atoms.

Materials Data on KCaCl3 by Materials Project

KCaCl3 is (Cubic) Perovskite structured and crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. K1+ is bonded to twelve Cl1- atoms to form KCl12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent KCl12 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent KCl12 cuboctahedra, and faces with eight equivalent CaCl6 octahedra. There are a spread of K–Cl bond distances ranging from 3.75–3.90 Å. Ca2+ is bonded to six Cl1- atoms to form CaCl6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent CaCl6 octahedra and faces with eight equivalent KCl12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 1–3°. There are four shorter (2.70 Å) and two longer (2.71 Å) Ca–Cl bond lengths. There are three inequivalent Cl1- sites. In the first Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to four equivalent K1+ and two equivalent Ca2+ atoms. In the second Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to four equivalent K1+ and two equivalent Ca2+ atoms. In the third Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to four equivalent K1+ and two equivalent Ca2+ atoms.

Materials Data on KCaCl3 by Materials Project

KCaCl3 is Orthorhombic Perovskite structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. K1+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight Cl1- atoms. There are a spread of K–Cl bond distances ranging from 3.15–3.68 Å. Ca2+ is bonded to six Cl1- atoms to form corner-sharing CaCl6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 32°. There are a spread of Ca–Cl bond distances ranging from 2.74–2.76 Å. There are two inequivalent Cl1- sites. In the first Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to three equivalent K1+ and two equivalent Ca2+ atoms. In the second Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded to two equivalent K1+ and two equivalent Ca2+ atoms to form distorted corner-sharing ClK2Ca2 tetrahedra.
