Materials Data on Yb2(Ni5B3)3 by Materials Project
Abstract
YbYb(Ni5B3)3 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmce space group. The structure is three-dimensional and consists of eight ytterbium molecules and one Yb(Ni5B3)3 framework. In the Yb(Ni5B3)3 framework, Yb2+ is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to four B3- atoms. There are two shorter (2.74 Å) and two longer (2.90 Å) Yb–B bond lengths. There are ten inequivalent Ni+1.53+ sites. In the first Ni+1.53+ site, Ni+1.53+ is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four B3- atoms. There are two shorter (2.00 Å) and two longer (2.12 Å) Ni–B bond lengths. In the second Ni+1.53+ site, Ni+1.53+ is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to four B3- atoms. There are a spread of Ni–B bond distances ranging from 2.06–2.56 Å. In the third Ni+1.53+ site, Ni+1.53+ is bonded in an octahedral geometry to six B3- atoms. There are two shorter (2.32 Å) and four longer (2.49 Å) Ni–B bond lengths. In the fourth Ni+1.53+ site, Ni+1.53+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four B3- atoms. There are a spread of Ni–B bond distances ranging from 2.15–2.21 Å. In the fifth Ni+1.53+ site, Ni+1.53+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to five B3- atoms. There are a spread of Ni–B bond distances rangingmore »
