“…Based on the tolerance factor ( t ), which is slightly greater than 1, these phases are expected to lie on the border between hexagonal and cubic symmetry. Indeed, the corresponding perovskites containing Mo, W, and Re, with t = 1.027, 1.029, and 1.039, have been described in the cubic Fm 3̅ m space group; , while B = Ir ( t = 1.069) crystallizes in the rhombohedral space group R 3̅ m , and the Ru-based perovskite ( t = 1.07) exhibits hexagonal P 6 3 /mcm symmetry. It is interesting that the most stable structure at ambient pressure for Ba 2 CoOsO 6 ( t = 1.04) has the unusual trigonal P 3̅ m 1 symmetry, which is expected to undergo phase transition into the cubic symmetry under pressure, as it has been observed in the equivalent Ba 2 NiOsO 6 compound .…”
