AcBrO
AcBrO is a thermodynamically stable, insulating oxybromide compound containing actinium.
About AcBrO
AcBrO is a thermodynamically stable oxybromide compound containing actinium, bromine, and oxygen. As a member of the actinide oxyhalide family, it exhibits wide-gap insulating electronic characteristics, making it a subject of interest for fundamental solid-state studies.
Its position on the convex hull confirms its thermodynamic stability, which is supported by multiple reported structural configurations across various databases. This stability makes it a significant reference point for understanding the bonding and structural behavior of actinium in halide-oxide environments.
Key Properties
Cross-validated computational properties for AcBrO, aggregated across 3 databases.
Band GapEnergy needed to move an electron from the valence band to the conduction band. Lower or zero values tend to behave more metallic; larger gaps are more insulating or semiconducting.
Energy Above HullThermodynamic distance from the most stable set of competing phases. 0 eV/atom is on the convex hull; small positive values may still be experimentally accessible.
