Figure 3
Shannon ionic radii versus MT radii for the different V coordination and oxidation states. The ionic radii are taken from literature data (Shannon, 1976), whereas the MT radii are determined in the present work by means of MXAN fit. For [6]V3+ and [4]V5+ the value for the MT radius is calculated as an average between the two respective structures. The lines are only guides for the eye and connect points representing V in the same oxidation state. |
