Materials Data on CaMg14Al by Materials Project
Abstract
CaMg14Al crystallizes in the orthorhombic Amm2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ca is bonded to ten Mg and two equivalent Al atoms to form CaMg10Al2 cuboctahedra that share corners with six equivalent CaMg10Al2 cuboctahedra, corners with twelve MgMg12 cuboctahedra, edges with two equivalent AlCa2Mg10 cuboctahedra, edges with sixteen MgCaMg10Al cuboctahedra, faces with two equivalent AlCa2Mg10 cuboctahedra, and faces with eighteen MgMg12 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Ca–Mg bond distances ranging from 3.21–3.29 Å. Both Ca–Al bond lengths are 3.19 Å. There are seven inequivalent Mg sites. In the first Mg site, Mg is bonded to twelve Mg atoms to form MgMg12 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent CaMg10Al2 cuboctahedra, corners with fourteen MgMg12 cuboctahedra, edges with eighteen MgCaMg10Al cuboctahedra, faces with two equivalent AlCa2Mg10 cuboctahedra, and faces with eighteen MgMg12 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Mg–Mg bond distances ranging from 3.16–3.25 Å. In the second Mg site, Mg is bonded to twelve Mg atoms to form MgMg12 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent AlCa2Mg10 cuboctahedra, corners with fourteen MgMg12 cuboctahedra, edges with eighteen MgCaMg10Al cuboctahedra, faces with two equivalent CaMg10Al2 cuboctahedra, and faces with eighteen MgMg12 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Mg–Mg bond distancesmore »
