About Neighborite SubgroupHide

Formula:

ABF₃

A= A site, B = B site

Member of:

Stoichiometric Perovskites Group > Perovskite Supergroup

The Neighborite Subgroup is a subgroup of the Stoichiometric Perovskites in the Perovskite Supergroup. They are defined as fluoride single perovskites. Members of this group is characterized by fluorine as the dominant anion (Mitchell et al. 2016).
