Materials Data on Y(MnAl)6 by Materials Project
Abstract
Y(MnAl)6 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Immm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Y is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to twelve Mn and eight Al atoms. There are four shorter (3.21 Å) and eight longer (3.32 Å) Y–Mn bond lengths. There are a spread of Y–Al bond distances ranging from 2.92–3.04 Å. There are two inequivalent Mn sites. In the first Mn site, Mn is bonded to two equivalent Y, four Mn, and six Al atoms to form a mixture of distorted face, edge, and corner-sharing MnY2Mn4Al6 cuboctahedra. There are two shorter (2.47 Å) and two longer (2.52 Å) Mn–Mn bond lengths. There are two shorter (2.53 Å) and four longer (2.63 Å) Mn–Al bond lengths. In the second Mn site, Mn is bonded to two equivalent Y, four equivalent Mn, and six Al atoms to form a mixture of distorted face, edge, and corner-sharing MnY2Mn4Al6 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Mn–Al bond distances ranging from 2.62–2.68 Å. There are three inequivalent Al sites. In the first Al site, Al is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to one Y, six Mn, and three Al atoms. There are one shorter (2.69 Å) and two longer (2.80 Å) Al–Al bond lengths.more »
