Materials Data on NaNdTiNbO6F by Materials Project

NaNdTiNbO6F crystallizes in the orthorhombic Imma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Na1+ is bonded to six O2- and two equivalent F1- atoms to form distorted NaO6F2 hexagonal bipyramids that share edges with two equivalent NaO6F2 hexagonal bipyramids, edges with four equivalent NdO6F2 hexagonal bipyramids, edges with two equivalent TiO6 octahedra, and edges with four equivalent NbO6 octahedra. There are two shorter (2.62 Å) and four longer (2.71 Å) Na–O bond lengths. Both Na–F bond lengths are 2.21 Å. Nd3+ is bonded to six O2- and two equivalent F1- atoms to form distorted NdO6F2 hexagonal bipyramids that share edges with two equivalent NdO6F2 hexagonal bipyramids, edges with four equivalent NaO6F2 hexagonal bipyramids, edges with two equivalent NbO6 octahedra, and edges with four equivalent TiO6 octahedra. There are four shorter (2.52 Å) and two longer (2.60 Å) Nd–O bond lengths. Both Nd–F bond lengths are 2.31 Å. Ti4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form TiO6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent TiO6 octahedra, corners with four equivalent NbO6 octahedra, edges with two equivalent NaO6F2 hexagonal bipyramids, and edges with four equivalent NdO6F2 hexagonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 45–48°. All Ti–O bond lengths are 1.98 Å. Nb5+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form NbO6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent NbO6 octahedra, corners with four equivalent TiO6 octahedra, edges with two equivalent NdO6F2 hexagonal bipyramids, and edges with four equivalent NaO6F2 hexagonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 40–45°. There are four shorter (2.01 Å) and two longer (2.02 Å) Nb–O bond lengths. There are three inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Nd3+ and two equivalent Ti4+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Na1+ and two equivalent Nb5+ atoms. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one Na1+, one Nd3+, one Ti4+, and one Nb5+ atom. F1- is bonded to two equivalent Na1+ and two equivalent Nd3+ atoms to form corner-sharing FNa2Nd2 tetrahedra.
