Materials Data on YbH2 by Materials Project
Abstract
YbH2 is Cotunnite structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Yb2+ is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to nine H1- atoms. There are a spread of Yb–H bond distances ranging from 2.22–2.56 Å. There are two inequivalent H1- sites. In the first H1- site, H1- is bonded to four equivalent Yb2+ atoms to form HYb4 tetrahedra that share corners with eight equivalent HYb5 square pyramids, corners with eight equivalent HYb4 tetrahedra, edges with six equivalent HYb5 square pyramids, and edges with two equivalent HYb4 tetrahedra. In the second H1- site, H1- is bonded to five equivalent Yb2+ atoms to form distorted HYb5 square pyramids that share corners with eight equivalent HYb5 square pyramids, corners with eight equivalent HYb4 tetrahedra, edges with six equivalent HYb5 square pyramids, and edges with six equivalent HYb4 tetrahedra.
