What is an antifluorite?

An antifluorite is a type of crystal structure in which the cations and anions in a crystal lattice are arranged in a specific pattern. In an antifluorite structure, the anions occupy the positions that cations would normally occupy, and vice versa. This results in a reversed or "anti" arrangement compared to the more common structure of fluorite.
