EuO3 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. Eu(1) is bonded to twelve equivalent O(1) atoms to form a mixture of corner and face-sharing EuO12 cuboctahedra. O(1) is bonded in a see-saw-like geometry to four equivalent Eu(1) atoms.
EuO3 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. Eu(1) is bonded to twelve equivalent O(1) atoms to form a mixture of corner and face-sharing EuO12 cuboctahedra. There are six shorter (2.51 Å) and six longer (2.59 Å) Eu(1)-O(1) bond lengths. O(1) is bonded in a see-saw-like geometry to four equivalent Eu(1) atoms.
