Materials Data on YbOF by Materials Project

YbOF crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Yb3+ is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent O2- and four equivalent F1- atoms. There are a spread of Yb–O bond distances ranging from 2.34–2.49 Å. There are two shorter (2.26 Å) and two longer (2.33 Å) Yb–F bond lengths. O2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Yb3+ and one O2- atom. The O–O bond length is 1.52 Å. F1- is bonded to four equivalent Yb3+ atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing FYb4 tetrahedra.
