Materials Data on Zr2Al3C4 by Materials Project
Abstract
Zr2Al3C4 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Zr+3.50+ is bonded to six C4- atoms to form ZrC6 octahedra that share corners with three equivalent ZrC6 octahedra, corners with three equivalent AlC4 tetrahedra, edges with nine equivalent ZrC6 octahedra, and edges with three equivalent AlC4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°. There are three shorter (2.34 Å) and three longer (2.50 Å) Zr–C bond lengths. There are two inequivalent Al3+ sites. In the first Al3+ site, Al3+ is bonded to four C4- atoms to form AlC4 tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent ZrC6 octahedra, corners with seven equivalent AlC4 tetrahedra, and edges with three equivalent ZrC6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 20°. There are one shorter (2.02 Å) and three longer (2.06 Å) Al–C bond lengths. In the second Al3+ site, Al3+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent C4- atoms. All Al–C bond lengths are 1.94 Å. There are three inequivalent C4- sites. In the first C4- site, C4- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Zr+3.50+ and three equivalent Al3+ atoms. In the second C4- site, C4- is bonded to six equivalent Zr+3.50+ atomsmore »
