Ba2GdWO6 is (Cubic) Perovskite-derived structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fm-3m 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 Gd(1)O6 octahedra, and faces with four equivalent W(1)O6 octahedra. Gd(1) is bonded to six equivalent O(1) atoms to form GdO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent W(1)O6 octahedra and faces with eight equivalent Ba(1)O12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra are not tilted. W(1) is bonded to six equivalent O(1) atoms to form WO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Gd(1)O6 octahedra and faces with eight equivalent Ba(1)O12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra are not tilted. O(1) is bonded to four equivalent Ba(1), one Gd(1), and one W(1) atom to form a mixture of distorted edge, face, and corner-sharing OBa4GdW octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 0-60°.
