AgSbO3
AgSbO3 is a thermodynamically stable semiconducting oxide that serves as a versatile subject for materials science research.
About AgSbO3
AgSbO3 is a complex oxide composed of silver, antimony, and oxygen. As a thermodynamically stable phase located on the convex hull, it represents a robust crystalline arrangement that is highly favorable under standard conditions.
This material exhibits semiconducting electronic properties, making it an interesting candidate for investigation in optoelectronic or catalytic applications. Its structural versatility is highlighted by the significant number of reported experimental and theoretical configurations found across material databases.
Key Properties
Cross-validated computational properties for AgSbO3, 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.
StabilityA plain-language summary of the best reported energy-above-hull result. It reflects whether the lowest-energy structure is on, near, or far from the stability hull.
StructuresCount of reported calculated crystal structures for this formula, including alternate polymorphs, source databases, and observed space groups.
Cross-Source DFT Agreement
How well independent DFT databases agree on the thermodynamics of AgSbO3. Tight agreement means computed properties can be trusted without re-running calculations.
Agreement ScoreA normalized confidence score summarizing how closely independent DFT databases agree. Higher scores mean tighter cross-source agreement.
Hull SpreadDifference between the highest and lowest energy-above-hull values reported by comparable sources. Smaller spread means less thermodynamic disagreement.
Sources ComparedNumber and names of computational sources with comparable entries for this formula.
Space Group ConsensusWhether independent sources predict the same crystal symmetry for the lowest-energy structure.
