NaYF4 is Fluorite-derived structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/mmm space group. Na(1) is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent F(1) atoms. Y(1) is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent F(1) atoms. F(1) is bonded to two equivalent Na(1) and two equivalent Y(1) atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing FNa2Y2 tetrahedra.
