Materials Data on Ho2SbO2 by Materials Project
Ho2SbO2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Imm2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ho3+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Sb2- and four equivalent O2- atoms. There are two shorter (3.45 Å) and two longer (3.56 Å) Ho–Sb bond lengths. There are one shorter (2.21 Å) and three longer (2.22 Å) Ho–O bond lengths. Sb2- is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent Ho3+ atoms. O2- is bonded to four equivalent Ho3+ atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing OHo4 tetrahedra.
