Variation in the bond valence sums (AV) as a function of the O2− parameter, u, of each of the ions in the spinels MgCr2O4 (top) and NiAl2O4 (bottom). The predicted value of u is the one which gives the bond valence sums for each ion that correspond to their atomic valence. With kind permission of Springer Science + Business Media from Phys. Chem.
