Materials Data on DyWO5 by Materials Project

DyWO5 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Dy is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight O atoms. There are a spread of Dy–O bond distances ranging from 2.29–2.46 Å. W is bonded in a distorted trigonal bipyramidal geometry to five O atoms. There are a spread of W–O bond distances ranging from 1.80–2.17 Å. There are five inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to two equivalent Dy and one W atom. In the second O site, O is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two equivalent Dy and one W atom. In the third O site, O is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two equivalent Dy and one W atom. In the fourth O site, O is bonded in a linear geometry to one Dy and one W atom. In the fifth O site, O is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Dy and one W atom.
