About Rb3BiO3
Rb3BiO3 is a complex oxide featuring rubidium, bismuth, and oxygen. As a thermodynamically stable phase located on the convex hull, it represents a robust crystalline arrangement that persists under standard conditions.
This material exhibits the electronic characteristics of a wide-band-gap insulator. Its stable configuration and distinct electronic profile make it a subject of interest for researchers investigating the fundamental properties of alkali metal bismuthates.
Key Properties
Cross-validated computational properties for Rb3BiO3, 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.
