Abstract
ErFe6Sn6 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmcm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Er sites. In the first Er site, Er is bonded to twelve Fe and eight Sn atoms to form distorted ErFe12Sn8 hexagonal bipyramids that share corners with four equivalent ErFe12Sn8 hexagonal bipyramids, faces with ten FeEr2Fe4Sn6 cuboctahedra, and faces with four ErFe12Sn8 hexagonal bipyramids. There are a spread of Er–Fe bond distances ranging from 3.45–3.56 Å. There are a spread of Er–Sn bond distances ranging from 3.02–3.16 Å. In the second Er site, Er is bonded to twelve Fe and eight Sn atoms to form distorted ErFe12Sn8 hexagonal bipyramids that share faces with fourteen FeEr2Fe4Sn6 cuboctahedra and faces with six ErFe12Sn8 hexagonal bipyramids. There are a spread of Er–Fe bond distances ranging from 3.45–3.50 Å. There are a spread of Er–Sn bond distances ranging from 3.02–3.15 Å. There are five inequivalent Fe sites. In the first Fe site, Fe is bonded to two equivalent Er, four Fe, and six Sn atoms to form distorted FeEr2Fe4Sn6 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent FeEr2Fe4Sn6 cuboctahedra, edges with two equivalent FeEr2Fe4Sn6 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent FeEr2Fe4Sn6 cuboctahedra, and faces with four equivalent ErFe12Sn8 hexagonal bipyramids.more »
