Materials Data on La2SbO2 by Materials Project
La2SbO2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Imm2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. La3+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Sb2- and four equivalent O2- atoms. There are two shorter (3.64 Å) and two longer (3.71 Å) La–Sb bond lengths. There are one shorter (2.37 Å) and three longer (2.38 Å) La–O bond lengths. Sb2- is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent La3+ atoms. O2- is bonded to four equivalent La3+ atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing OLa4 tetrahedra.
