BaWO4 is Pb(Zr_(1-x)Ti_x)O3-like structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/m space group. Ba(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent O(1) atoms. W(1) is bonded to two equivalent O(1), two equivalent O(2), and two equivalent O(3) atoms to form distorted corner-sharing WO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 0-6°. There are three inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded to three equivalent Ba(1) and one W(1) atom to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing OBa3W tetrahedra. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to two equivalent W(1) atoms. In the third O site, O(3) is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent W(1) atoms.
BaWO4 is Pb(Zr_(1-x)Ti_x)O3-like structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/m space group. Ba(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent O(1) atoms. There are a spread of Ba(1)-O(1) bond distances ranging from 2.65-2.80 Å. W(1) is bonded to two equivalent O(1), two equivalent O(2), and two equivalent O(3) atoms to form distorted corner-sharing WO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 0-6°. Both W(1)-O(1) bond lengths are 1.87 Å. There is one shorter (1.85 Å) and one longer (2.35 Å) W(1)-O(2) bond length. Both W(1)-O(3) bond lengths are 2.01 Å. There are three inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded to three equivalent Ba(1) and one W(1) atom to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing OBa3W tetrahedra. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to two equivalent W(1) atoms. In the third O site, O(3) is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent W(1) atoms.
