Materials Data on La2MgVO6 by Materials Project
MgLa2VO6 crystallizes in the trigonal R-3 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Mg2+ is bonded to six equivalent O2- atoms to form MgO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent VO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 23°. All Mg–O bond lengths are 2.06 Å. La3+ is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to nine equivalent O2- atoms. There are a spread of La–O bond distances ranging from 2.41–2.81 Å. V4+ is bonded to six equivalent O2- atoms to form VO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent MgO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 23°. All V–O bond lengths are 1.96 Å. O2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to one Mg2+, three equivalent La3+, and one V4+ atom.
