Materials Data on CeMoO2 by Materials Project
CeMoO2 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4_1/a space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ce is bonded to six equivalent O atoms to form edge-sharing CeO6 octahedra. There are four shorter (2.45 Å) and two longer (2.47 Å) Ce–O bond lengths. Mo is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four equivalent O atoms. There are two shorter (2.22 Å) and two longer (2.24 Å) Mo–O bond lengths. O is bonded to three equivalent Ce and two equivalent Mo atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing OCe3Mo2 trigonal bipyramids.
