Oxybismuthides orbismuthide oxides are chemical compounds formally containing the group BiO, with onebismuth and oneoxygen atom. The bismuth and oxygen are not bound together as inbismuthates, instead they make a separate presence bound to the cations (metals), and could be considered as a mixedbismuthide-oxide compound. So a compound with OmBin requirescations to balance a negative charge of 2m+3n. The cations will have charges of +2 or +3. The trications are oftenrare earth elements oractinides. They are in the category ofoxypnictide compounds.
Many of the bismuthide oxides have bismuth in an unusual −2 oxidation state. The ones with Ln2BiO2 have the anti-ThCr2Si2 structure. They include alternating layers of LnO (anti-fluorite-type) and LnBiO. The Eu4Bi2O has an anti-K2NiF4 structure, the same as for Na2Ti2As2O. Some other compounds contain calcium and a rare earth CaRE3BiO4, and Ca2RE8Bi3O10.[1]
Some of these compounds are superconductors at very low temperatures and many are semiconductors at standard conditions.[1]
