Materials Data on Sm5Mg by Materials Project
Abstract
MgSm5 crystallizes in the trigonal R32 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Mg is bonded to twelve Sm atoms to form MgSm12 cuboctahedra that share corners with six equivalent MgSm12 cuboctahedra, corners with twelve equivalent SmSm9Mg3 cuboctahedra, edges with six equivalent MgSm12 cuboctahedra, edges with twelve SmSm10Mg2 cuboctahedra, and faces with twenty SmSm10Mg2 cuboctahedra. There are six shorter (3.51 Å) and six longer (3.61 Å) Mg–Sm bond lengths. There are six inequivalent Sm sites. In the first Sm site, Sm is bonded to two equivalent Mg and ten Sm atoms to form distorted SmSm10Mg2 cuboctahedra that share corners with eighteen SmSm10Mg2 cuboctahedra, edges with four equivalent MgSm12 cuboctahedra, edges with fourteen SmSm10Mg2 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent MgSm12 cuboctahedra, and faces with sixteen SmSm10Mg2 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Sm–Sm bond distances ranging from 3.51–3.75 Å. In the second Sm site, Sm is bonded to two equivalent Mg and ten Sm atoms to form distorted SmSm10Mg2 cuboctahedra that share corners with eighteen SmSm10Mg2 cuboctahedra, edges with four equivalent MgSm12 cuboctahedra, edges with fourteen SmSm10Mg2 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent MgSm12 cuboctahedra, and faces with sixteen SmSm10Mg2 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Sm–Sm bond distances ranging from 3.51–3.75 Å.more »
