Materials Data on Dy5Sn11 by Materials Project
Dy5Sn11 is Zirconium Disilicide-like structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Immm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Dy sites. In the first Dy site, Dy is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to ten Sn atoms. There are a spread of Dy–Sn bond distances ranging from 3.18–3.44 Å. In the second Dy site, Dy is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to ten Sn atoms. There are a spread of Dy–Sn bond distances ranging from 3.19–3.50 Å. In the third Dy site, Dy is bonded to twelve Sn atoms to form a mixture of face and corner-sharing DySn12 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Dy–Sn bond distances ranging from 3.13–3.39 Å. There are six inequivalent Sn sites. In the first Sn site, Sn is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to four Dy and six Sn atoms. There are four shorter (3.13 Å) and two longer (3.41 Å) Sn–Sn bond lengths. In the second Sn site, Sn is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to six Dy and two equivalent Sn atoms. Both Sn–Sn bond lengths are 3.02 Å. In the third Sn site, Sn is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Dy and four equivalent Sn atoms. All Sn–Sn bond lengths are 3.13 Å. In the fourth Sn site, Sn is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to six Dy and two equivalent Sn atoms. In the fifth Sn site, Sn is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to four Dy and six Sn atoms. Both Sn–Sn bond lengths are 3.36 Å. In the sixth Sn site, Sn is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four equivalent Dy and eight Sn atoms.
