Materials Data on NdBrO by Materials Project
NdOBr is Matlockite structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/nmm space group. The structure is two-dimensional and consists of one NdOBr sheet oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction. Nd3+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent O2- and four equivalent Br1- atoms. All Nd–O bond lengths are 2.34 Å. All Nd–Br bond lengths are 3.28 Å. O2- is bonded to four equivalent Nd3+ atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing ONd4 tetrahedra. Br1- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Nd3+ atoms.
