CaBHO3
CaBHO3 is a stable, insulating inorganic compound containing calcium, boron, hydrogen, and oxygen.
About CaBHO3
CaBHO3 is a complex inorganic compound composed of calcium, boron, hydrogen, and oxygen. As a thermodynamically stable phase residing on the convex hull, it represents a robust structural arrangement that is of significant interest for fundamental materials science research.
Characterized as a wide-gap insulator, this material exhibits electronic properties typical of stable, non-conducting oxides. With multiple reported crystal structures across various databases, it serves as a valuable subject for investigating the interplay between hydrogen incorporation and structural stability in borate-based systems.
Key Properties
Cross-validated computational properties for CaBHO3, 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.
Reported Structures
Lowest-energy structures reported for CaBHO3, ranked by energy above hull.
| Space GroupSymmetry classification of the crystal arrangement. The number is the international space-group index. | Crystal SystemBroad lattice family, such as cubic, tetragonal, monoclinic, or triclinic, derived from unit-cell symmetry. | Band Gap (eV)Electronic gap calculated for this specific reported structure, measured in electronvolts. | E above hull (eV/atom)Thermodynamic distance from the convex hull for this structure, normalized per atom. Lower is generally more stable. | E/atom (eV)Computed total energy normalized per atom. Use energy above hull, not this value alone, when comparing stability. | Density (g/cm³)Mass per relaxed crystal volume, reported in grams per cubic centimeter. |
