SrClO
SrClO is a semiconducting oxyhalide compound that exhibits metastable thermodynamic characteristics.

About SrClO
SrClO is a complex oxyhalide material characterized by its semiconducting electronic nature. As a compound containing strontium, chlorine, and oxygen, it represents a niche area of inorganic chemistry where anionic frameworks dictate unique physical behaviors.
Due to its position relative to the thermodynamic ground state, this material is considered metastable. Its existence across multiple reported structures highlights the structural complexity and synthetic challenges inherent in managing such oxyhalide systems.
Key Properties
Cross-validated computational properties for SrClO, 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.
