Materials Data on CeCu6 by Materials Project
Abstract
CeCu6 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ce is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to nineteen Cu atoms. There are a spread of Ce–Cu bond distances ranging from 2.87–3.36 Å. There are five inequivalent Cu sites. In the first Cu site, Cu is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Ce and nine Cu atoms. There are a spread of Cu–Cu bond distances ranging from 2.44–3.00 Å. In the second Cu site, Cu is bonded to three equivalent Ce and nine Cu atoms to form a mixture of edge, face, and corner-sharing CuCe3Cu9 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Cu–Cu bond distances ranging from 2.46–2.68 Å. In the third Cu site, Cu is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Ce and ten Cu atoms. There are a spread of Cu–Cu bond distances ranging from 2.50–3.06 Å. In the fourth Cu site, Cu is bonded to three equivalent Ce and nine Cu atoms to form a mixture of edge, face, and corner-sharing CuCe3Cu9 cuboctahedra. There are one shorter (2.48 Å) and one longer (2.63 Å) Cu–Cu bond lengths. In the fifth Cu site, Cu is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three equivalentmore »
