BeO is beta beryllia structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal P4_2/mnm space group. Be(1) is bonded to four equivalent O(1) atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing BeO4 tetrahedra. O(1) is bonded to four equivalent Be(1) atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing OBe4 tetrahedra.
BeO is beta beryllia structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal P4_2/mnm space group. Be(1) is bonded to four equivalent O(1) atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing BeO4 tetrahedra. There are two shorter (1.62 Å) and two longer (1.67 Å) Be(1)-O(1) bond lengths. O(1) is bonded to four equivalent Be(1) atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing OBe4 tetrahedra.
