An arsenate with the α-CrPO₄ structure type, NaCa_1–xNi_3–2xAl_2x(AsO₄)₃ (x = 0.23): crystal structure, charge-distribution and bond-valence-sum analyses

Since the discovery of electrochemically active LiFePO₄, materials with tunnel and layered structures built up of transition metals and polyanions have become the subject of much research. A new quaternary arsenate, sodium calcium trinickel aluminium triarsenate, NaCa_1–xNi_3–2xAl_2x(AsO₄)₃ (x = 0.23), was synthesized using the flux method in air at 1023 K and its crystal structure was determined from single-crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD) data. This material was also characterized by qualitative energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) analysis and IR spectroscopy. The crystal structure belongs to the α-CrPO₄ type with the space group Imma. The structure is described as a three-dimensional framework built up of corner-edge-sharing NiO₆, (Ni,Al)O₆ and AsO₄ polyhedra, with channels running along the [100] and [010] directions, in which the sodium and calcium cations are located. The proposed structural model has been validated by bond-valence-sum (BVS) and charge-distribution (CHARDI) tools. The sodium ionic conduction pathways in the anionic framework were investigated by means of the bond-valence site energy (BVSE) model, which predicted that the studied material will probably be a very poor Na⁺ ion conductor (bond-valence activation energy ∼7 eV).

Special details

Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds involving l.s. planes.
