Materials Data on Gd2Ni7 by Materials Project
Abstract
Gd2Ni7 crystallizes in the trigonal R-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are four inequivalent Gd sites. In the first Gd site, Gd is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to eighteen Ni atoms. There are a spread of Gd–Ni bond distances ranging from 2.86–3.26 Å. In the second Gd site, Gd is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to twelve Ni atoms. There are a spread of Gd–Ni bond distances ranging from 2.82–3.10 Å. In the third Gd site, Gd is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to eighteen Ni atoms. There are a spread of Gd–Ni bond distances ranging from 2.86–3.26 Å. In the fourth Gd site, Gd is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to eighteen Ni atoms. There are a spread of Gd–Ni bond distances ranging from 2.86–3.26 Å. There are eight inequivalent Ni sites. In the first Ni site, Ni is bonded to four Gd and eight Ni atoms to form a mixture of edge, face, and corner-sharing NiGd4Ni8 cuboctahedra. Both Ni–Gd bond lengths are 3.08 Å. There are a spread of Ni–Ni bond distances ranging from 2.43–2.47 Å. In the second Ni site, Ni is bonded to four Gd and eight Ni atoms to form a mixturemore »
