Materials Data on Cs4SnO4 by Materials Project
Cs4SnO4 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are four inequivalent Cs1+ sites. In the first Cs1+ site, Cs1+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form distorted CsO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent SnO4 tetrahedra and an edgeedge with one CsO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Cs–O bond distances ranging from 2.92–2.99 Å. In the second Cs1+ site, Cs1+ is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five O2- atoms. There are a spread of Cs–O bond distances ranging from 3.00–3.44 Å. In the third Cs1+ site, Cs1+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to five O2- atoms. There are a spread of Cs–O bond distances ranging from 2.89–3.64 Å. In the fourth Cs1+ site, Cs1+ is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five O2- atoms. There are a spread of Cs–O bond distances ranging from 3.04–3.30 Å. Sn4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SnO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent CsO4 tetrahedra. All Sn–O bond lengths are 2.01 Å. There are four inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to five Cs1+ and one Sn4+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to four Cs1+ and one Sn4+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to five Cs1+ and one Sn4+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to five Cs1+ and one Sn4+ atom.
