Sr3TeO6 is Ilmenite-like structured and crystallizes in the trigonal R3 space group. There are three inequivalent Sr sites. In the first Sr site, Sr(1) is bonded to three equivalent O(1) and three equivalent O(2) atoms to form SrO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Te(1)O6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 27-30°. In the second Sr site, Sr(2) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to three equivalent O(1) and three equivalent O(2) atoms. In the third Sr site, Sr(3) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to three equivalent O(1) and three equivalent O(2) atoms. Te(1) is bonded to three equivalent O(1) and three equivalent O(2) atoms to form TeO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Sr(1)O6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 27-30°. There are two inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one Sr(1), one Sr(2), one Sr(3), and one Te(1) atom. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one Sr(1), one Sr(2), one Sr(3), and one Te(1) atom.
