Sr2FeWO6
Sr2FeWO6 is a stable, semiconducting double perovskite oxide composed of strontium, iron, tungsten, and oxygen.
About Sr2FeWO6
Sr2FeWO6 is a complex oxide belonging to the ferrite family, characterized by its semiconducting electronic nature. As a thermodynamically stable phase located on the convex hull, it represents a robust structural configuration that has been extensively documented across multiple crystallographic databases.
This material is of significant interest in materials science due to its unique arrangement of iron and tungsten ions within the lattice. Its stability and electronic properties make it a subject of ongoing research for potential integration into functional oxide devices where precise control over semiconducting behavior is required.
Key Properties
Cross-validated computational properties for Sr2FeWO6, 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.

How It Compares
Within the spinel and hexagonal ferrites class.
Within the diverse group of ferrites and related oxides, Sr2FeWO6 occupies a distinct niche compared to siblings like Sr2FeMoO6. While many ferrites such as MgFe2O4 or ZnFe2O4 are widely recognized for their magnetic properties, Sr2FeWO6 leverages the specific electronic interplay between iron and tungsten to maintain its stable semiconducting profile, differentiating it from the more common spinel-structured ferrites.
