Materials Data on Dy(MnAl2)4 by Materials Project
Dy(MnAl2)4 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Dy is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent Mn and twelve Al atoms. All Dy–Mn bond lengths are 3.36 Å. There are four shorter (2.95 Å) and eight longer (3.24 Å) Dy–Al bond lengths. Mn is bonded to two equivalent Dy, two equivalent Mn, and eight Al atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge, corner, and face-sharing MnDy2Mn2Al8 cuboctahedra. Both Mn–Mn bond lengths are 2.58 Å. There are four shorter (2.56 Å) and four longer (2.66 Å) Mn–Al bond lengths. There are two inequivalent Al sites. In the first Al site, Al is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to one Dy, four equivalent Mn, and five Al atoms. There are a spread of Al–Al bond distances ranging from 2.76–2.88 Å. In the second Al site, Al is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Dy, four equivalent Mn, and six Al atoms. Both Al–Al bond lengths are 2.79 Å.
