BaCoDy2O5
BaCoDy2O5 is a semiconducting complex oxide containing barium, cobalt, and dysprosium that is considered potentially synthesizable.
About BaCoDy2O5
BaCoDy2O5 is a complex oxide composed of barium, cobalt, dysprosium, and oxygen. Its electronic character is defined as semiconducting, making it a subject of interest for researchers investigating functional materials with tunable charge transport properties.
As a near-hull compound, it occupies a favorable position in thermodynamic space, suggesting that it is likely synthesizable under appropriate experimental conditions. The existence of multiple reported structures across databases highlights its structural versatility and potential for further investigation in solid-state chemistry.
Key Properties
Cross-validated computational properties for BaCoDy2O5, 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.
