title: Materials Data on CeZr6O14 by Materials Project

description: CeZr6O14 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pmm2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ce4+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ce–O bond distances ranging from 2.23–2.49 Å. There are seven inequivalent Zr4+ sites. In the first Zr4+ site, Zr4+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Zr–O bond distances ranging from 2.12–2.40 Å. In the second Zr4+ site, Zr4+ is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Zr–O bond distances ranging from 2.10–2.44 Å. In the third Zr4+ site, Zr4+ is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Zr–O bond distances ranging from 2.10–2.44 Å. In the fourth Zr4+ site, Zr4+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Zr–O bond distances ranging from 2.11–2.40 Å. In the fifth Zr4+ site, Zr4+ is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Zr–O bond distances ranging from 2.10–2.44 Å. In the sixth Zr4+ site, Zr4+ is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Zr–O bond distances ranging from 2.11–2.43 Å. In the seventh Zr4+ site, Zr4+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Zr–O bond distances ranging from 2.12–2.41 Å.
