The material structure described by Sn2Ta2O7 crystallizes in the cubic Fd-3m space group. The structure consists of one Sn2O framework and one TaO3 framework. In the Sn2O framework, Sn(1) is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to two equivalent O(1) atoms. O(1) is bonded to four equivalent Sn(1) atoms to form corner-sharing OSn4 tetrahedra. In the TaO3 framework, Ta(1) is bonded to six equivalent O(2) atoms to form corner-sharing TaO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 39°. O(2) is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to two equivalent Ta(1) atoms. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
