Goldschmidt tolerance factor calculator for ABX3 compounds
t | >Structure | Explanation | Example |
>1 | Hexagonal | A ion too big or B ion too small | BaNiO3 |
0.9-1 | Cubic | A and B ions have ideal size | SrTiO3, BaTiO3 |
0.71-0.9 | Orthorhombic/Rhombohedral | A ions too small to fit into B ion interstices | GdFeO3, CaTiO3 |
<0.71 | Different Structures | A ions and B have similar ionic radii | FeTiO3 |
