title: Materials Data on NbFeO4 by Materials Project

description: FeNbO4 is zeta iron carbide-derived structured and crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are four inequivalent Nb5+ sites. In the first Nb5+ site, Nb5+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted NbO6 octahedra that share corners with four NbO6 octahedra, corners with four FeO6 octahedra, and edges with two equivalent FeO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 45–59°. There are a spread of Nb–O bond distances ranging from 1.92–2.26 Å. In the second Nb5+ site, Nb5+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted NbO6 octahedra that share corners with four NbO6 octahedra, corners with four FeO6 octahedra, and edges with two equivalent FeO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 45–58°. There are a spread of Nb–O bond distances ranging from 1.92–2.26 Å. In the third Nb5+ site, Nb5+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted NbO6 octahedra that share corners with four NbO6 octahedra, corners with four FeO6 octahedra, and edges with two equivalent FeO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 45–58°. There are a spread of Nb–O bond distances ranging from 1.92–2.26 Å.
