Materials Data on Tb2TeO2 by Materials Project
Tb2TeO2 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Tb3+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Te2- and four equivalent O2- atoms. All Tb–Te bond lengths are 3.46 Å. All Tb–O bond lengths are 2.26 Å. Te2- is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent Tb3+ atoms. O2- is bonded to four equivalent Tb3+ atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing OTb4 tetrahedra.
