Ba2LuBiO6 is (Cubic) Perovskite-derived structured and crystallizes in the trigonal R-3 space group. Ba(1) is bonded to twelve equivalent O(1) atoms to form BaO12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent Ba(1)O12 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent Ba(1)O12 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent Lu(1)O6 octahedra, and faces with four equivalent Bi(1)O6 octahedra. Lu(1) is bonded to six equivalent O(1) atoms to form LuO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Bi(1)O6 octahedra and faces with eight equivalent Ba(1)O12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 6°. Bi(1) is bonded to six equivalent O(1) atoms to form BiO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Lu(1)O6 octahedra and faces with eight equivalent Ba(1)O12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 6°. O(1) is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Ba(1), one Lu(1), and one Bi(1) atom.
