Primitive Cubic Cation-Disordered Niobium Tungsten Oxides.

ABSTRACT: In recent years, metastable cation-disordered oxides have had a significant impact on both fundamental and application-driven materials science research. Along this direction, developing new and simple structural types that can accommodate cation disorder at the same crystallographic site has yet to receive extensive research focus. In this work, we use niobium tungsten oxides (NbWOs), a series of materials encompassing diverse structural features, as a material platform to explore new cation-disordered structural types. Relying on mechanochemistry, we realized primitive cubic cation-disordered NbWOs with a ReO₃-type structure, featuring unique electronic and vibrational properties. Furthermore, when applied as a Li-ion battery anode, the materials undergo a unique perovskite-ro
