Materials Data on LaTl(WO4)2 by Materials Project
LaTl(WO4)2 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. La3+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four O2- atoms. There are a spread of La–O bond distances ranging from 2.35–2.41 Å. There are two inequivalent W6+ sites. In the first W6+ site, W6+ is bonded in a distorted octahedral geometry to six O2- atoms. There are a spread of W–O bond distances ranging from 1.84–2.28 Å. In the second W6+ site, W6+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six O2- atoms. There are a spread of W–O bond distances ranging from 1.79–2.33 Å. Tl1+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Tl–O bond distances ranging from 2.67–3.18 Å. There are five inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two W6+ and one Tl1+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one W6+ and one Tl1+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one La3+, one W6+, and one Tl1+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded to one La3+ and three W6+ atoms to form distorted edge-sharing OLaW3 tetrahedra. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one La3+, one W6+, and two equivalent Tl1+ atoms.
