SrClO2
SrClO2 is a semiconducting strontium oxychloride compound that exists in a metastable state.
About SrClO2
SrClO2 is a complex oxychloride material characterized by its semiconducting electronic nature. Its unique combination of strontium, chlorine, and oxygen positions it as a subject of interest for researchers investigating non-traditional inorganic frameworks. Due to its position above the thermodynamic hull, the compound is considered metastable. The existence of multiple reported structural variations across databases highlights the complexity involved in synthesizing and stabilizing this specific chemical arrangement.
Key Properties
Cross-validated computational properties for SrClO2, 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.
