Abstract

AB₂O₆ Oxides have recently attracted significant attention these days due to their exclusive properties. These compounds exhibit a variety of structural forms with diverse characteristics. Among them, columbite-type Oxides possess an orthorhombic structure, belong to Pbcn space group and exhibit symmetry. The structure has of these material consists of AO₆ and BO₆ octahedra which are arranged in zig zag manner and have a powerful impact on the characteristics of these materials. These materials play a vital role in different applications such as microwave technology, catalysis, energy storage and electronic sensors. From a comprehensive literature survey, this review has covered the detailed study of the structure, physical properties, synthesis techniques, and the applications of these Oxides. Subsequently, we discuss the future potential of the Columbite Oxides, with an emphasis on strategies and computational modeling to enhance their properties and performance for the future technologies.
