A series of mixed-metal oxide structures based on the stacking of α-U3O8 type pentagonal bipyramid layers have been investigated for symmetry lowering distortions and photocatalytic activity. The family of structures contains the general composition Am+((n+1)/m)B(3n+1)O(8n+3) (e.g., A = Ag, Bi, Ca, Cu, Ce, Dy, Eu, Gd K, La, Nd, Pb, Pr, Sr, Y; B = Nb, Ta; m = 1–3; n = 1, 1.5, 2), and the edge-shared BO7 pentagonal pyramid single, double, and/or triple layers are differentiated by the average thickness, (i.e., 1 ≤ n ≤ 2), of the BO7 layers and the local coordination environment of the “A” site cations. Temperature dependent polymorphism has been investigated for structures containing single layered (n = 1) monovalent (m = 1) “A” site cations (e.g., Ag2Nb4O11, Na2Nb4O11, and Cu2Ta4O11). Furthermore, symmetry lowering distortions were observed for the Pb ion-exchange synthesis of Ag2Ta4O11 to yield PbTa4O11. Several members within the subset of the family have been constructed with optical and electronic properties that are suitable for the conversion of solar energy to chemical fuels via water splitting
