Materials Data on Al(BiO2)2 by Materials Project

Al(BiO2)2 crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/ncc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Al3+ is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four equivalent O2- atoms. All Al–O bond lengths are 1.87 Å. Bi+2.50+ is bonded to six equivalent O2- atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing BiO6 pentagonal pyramids. There are a spread of Bi–O bond distances ranging from 2.24–2.70 Å. O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one Al3+ and three equivalent Bi+2.50+ atoms.
