Abstract: | We explore the stability of the hexagonal form of MBaCo4O7 cobaltites in terms of geometric characteristics of the crystal structure and Global Instability Index (GII) based on the bond-valence considerations. Mismatch between an M3+/2+ and the three-dimensional network of CoO4 tetrahedra, whether expressed using an M ionic radii or GII, is shown to essentially determine both the temperature of structural transition to an orthorhombic modification and oxygen storage properties. A number of M cations not reported in the literature are identified to be suitable for the octahedral sites in an MBaCo4O7 structure. |
