Materials Data on La2Si3Rh by Materials Project
La2RhSi3 crystallizes in the hexagonal P-62c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent La sites. In the first La site, La is bonded to twelve equivalent Si atoms to form LaSi12 cuboctahedra that share edges with twelve equivalent LaSi8Rh4 cuboctahedra and faces with eight LaSi12 cuboctahedra. There are six shorter (3.22 Å) and six longer (3.24 Å) La–Si bond lengths. In the second La site, La is bonded to four equivalent Rh and eight equivalent Si atoms to form a mixture of edge and face-sharing LaSi8Rh4 cuboctahedra. All La–Rh bond lengths are 3.24 Å. There are four shorter (3.23 Å) and four longer (3.25 Å) La–Si bond lengths. Rh is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to six equivalent La and three equivalent Si atoms. All Rh–Si bond lengths are 2.42 Å. Si is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to six La, one Rh, and two equivalent Si atoms. There are one shorter (2.39 Å) and one longer (2.40 Å) Si–Si bond lengths.
