Title: Materials Data on Nb3Sn by Materials Project

Abstract

Nb3Sn crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3n space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Nb is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Nb and four equivalent Sn atoms. Both Nb–Nb bond lengths are 2.67 Å. All Nb–Sn bond lengths are 2.98 Å. Sn is bonded to twelve equivalent Nb atoms to form a mixture of face and edge-sharing SnNb12 cuboctahedra.
