The Materials Project

CeZnSn crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Ce sites. In the first Ce site, Ce is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Zn and six equivalent Sn atoms. All Ce–Zn bond lengths are 3.08 Å. All Ce–Sn bond lengths are 3.45 Å. In the second Ce site, Ce is bonded to six equivalent Sn atoms to form distorted edge-sharing CeSn6 octahedra. All Ce–Sn bond lengths are 3.28 Å. Zn is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Ce and three equivalent Sn atoms. All Zn–Sn bond lengths are 2.73 Å. Sn is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six Ce and three equivalent Zn atoms.
