Materials Data on EuMoO2 by Materials Project
EuMoO2 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4_1/amd space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Eu2+ is bonded to six equivalent O2- atoms to form edge-sharing EuO6 octahedra. There are four shorter (2.50 Å) and two longer (2.53 Å) Eu–O bond lengths. Mo2+ is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four equivalent O2- atoms. All Mo–O bond lengths are 2.23 Å. O2- is bonded to three equivalent Eu2+ and two equivalent Mo2+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing OEu3Mo2 square pyramids.
