“…The simplest ordering pattern arises when all oxygen atoms are removed from the perovskite AO layers, leaving the BO 2 layers intact, as in the ''infinite-layer'' AFeO 2 (A¼Ca, Sr) structures [1,2]. Layered ordering of the oxygen vacancies is preserved at higher oxygen content in the A 2 Fe 2 O 5 (A¼Ca, Sr) brownmillerites [3][4][5][6][7][8][9]. They consist of layers of FeO 6 octahedra interleaving with layers of the FeO 4 tetrahedra and demonstrate a variety of polytypes because of the configurational flexibility of the tetrahedral layers [10,11].…”
