Title: Materials Data on La2Rh7 by Materials Project

Abstract

La2Rh7 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent La sites. In the first La site, La is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to twelve Rh atoms. There are a spread of La–Rh bond distances ranging from 3.05–3.44 Å. In the second La site, La is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to eighteen Rh atoms. There are a spread of La–Rh bond distances ranging from 3.09–3.57 Å. There are five inequivalent Rh sites. In the first Rh site, Rh is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three equivalent La and nine Rh atoms. There are a spread of Rh–Rh bond distances ranging from 2.67–3.08 Å. In the second Rh site, Rh is bonded to four equivalent La and eight Rh atoms to form a mixture of edge, face, and corner-sharing RhLa4Rh8 cuboctahedra. There are four shorter (2.67 Å) and two longer (2.70 Å) Rh–Rh bond lengths. In the third Rh site, Rh is bonded to five La and seven Rh atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge, face, and corner-sharing RhLa5Rh7 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Rh–Rh bond distances ranging from 2.66–2.75 Å. In the fourth Rh site, Rh is bondedmore » in a 3-coordinate geometry to three equivalent La and nine Rh atoms. In the fifth Rh site, Rh is bonded to six equivalent La and six equivalent Rh atoms to form RhLa6Rh6 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent RhLa5Rh7 cuboctahedra, edges with six equivalent RhLa6Rh6 cuboctahedra, and faces with eighteen equivalent RhLa5Rh7 cuboctahedra.« less
