Title: Materials Data on NbCr3 by Materials Project

Abstract

CrCr2Nb is Uranium Silicide-like structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Nb is bonded to twelve Cr atoms to form distorted NbCr12 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent NbCr12 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent NbCr12 cuboctahedra, edges with sixteen equivalent CrNb4Cr8 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent NbCr12 cuboctahedra, and faces with eight equivalent CrNb4Cr8 cuboctahedra. There are four shorter (2.48 Å) and eight longer (2.83 Å) Nb–Cr bond lengths. There are two inequivalent Cr sites. In the first Cr site, Cr is bonded in a distorted square co-planar geometry to four equivalent Nb and eight equivalent Cr atoms. All Cr–Cr bond lengths are 2.83 Å. In the second Cr site, Cr is bonded to four equivalent Nb and eight Cr atoms to form distorted CrNb4Cr8 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent CrNb4Cr8 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent NbCr12 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent CrNb4Cr8 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent NbCr12 cuboctahedra, and faces with ten equivalent CrNb4Cr8 cuboctahedra. All Cr–Cr bond lengths are 2.48 Å.
