The Materials Project

TbB4 crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/mbm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Tb is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight B atoms. There are a spread of Tb–B bond distances ranging from 2.59–2.80 Å. There are three inequivalent B sites. In the first B site, B is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five B atoms. There is one shorter (1.62 Å) and four longer (1.76 Å) B–B bond length. In the second B site, B is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Tb and four B atoms. Both B–B bond lengths are 1.68 Å. In the third B site, B is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Tb and one B atom. The B–B bond length is 1.55 Å.
