Cation polarization and the crystal structure of SnO
Tin(II) oxide has an unusual crystal structure (litharge) which exhibits numerous 'non-ionic' features, such as nearest neighbour ions of like charge and a large lattice energy compared with other oxides of similar cation radius. It is shown that a generic ionic interaction model for oxide...
