Tranformation of the ReO3-type phase to, respectively, α- and γ-ZrF4 structures through anionic bridging. (a) The basic bridging mechanism for anion insertion. (b) Ordered anionic bridging by F6 corners creating a 32.4.3.4 (001) cationic plane net in α-ZrF4. (c) F1–F1 edges creating a [32.43][3.43] (10) [identical to the homologous (110)] cationic plane net in γ-ZrF4. |
