Materials Data on La(FeSb3)4 by Materials Project
LaFe4Sb12 crystallizes in the cubic Im-3 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. La3+ is bonded to twelve equivalent Sb+1.25- atoms to form LaSb12 cuboctahedra that share faces with eight equivalent FeSb6 octahedra. All La–Sb bond lengths are 3.42 Å. Fe3+ is bonded to six equivalent Sb+1.25- atoms to form FeSb6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent FeSb6 octahedra and faces with two equivalent LaSb12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 52°. All Fe–Sb bond lengths are 2.55 Å. Sb+1.25- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one La3+, two equivalent Fe3+, and two equivalent Sb+1.25- atoms. There are one shorter (3.00 Å) and one longer (3.03 Å) Sb–Sb bond lengths.
