Materials Data on Eu2Ti2O5 by Materials Project
Eu2Ti2O5 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Ima2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Eu2+ is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to ten O2- atoms. There are a spread of Eu–O bond distances ranging from 2.50–3.07 Å. There are two inequivalent Ti3+ sites. In the first Ti3+ site, Ti3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form corner-sharing TiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 9°. There are a spread of Ti–O bond distances ranging from 1.97–2.01 Å. In the second Ti3+ site, Ti3+ is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ti–O bond distances ranging from 1.93–1.95 Å. There are three inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Eu2+ and two equivalent Ti3+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Eu2+ and two Ti3+ atoms. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Eu2+ and two equivalent Ti3+ atoms.
