Abstract
SmFeAl crystallizes in the orthorhombic Amm2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Sm sites. In the first Sm site, Sm is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Sm, five Fe, and seven Al atoms. There are one shorter (3.33 Å) and two longer (3.35 Å) Sm–Sm bond lengths. There are a spread of Sm–Fe bond distances ranging from 3.08–3.25 Å. There are a spread of Sm–Al bond distances ranging from 3.19–3.23 Å. In the second Sm site, Sm is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to four Sm, seven Fe, and five Al atoms. The Sm–Sm bond length is 3.13 Å. There are a spread of Sm–Fe bond distances ranging from 3.12–3.25 Å. There are a spread of Sm–Al bond distances ranging from 3.09–3.26 Å. There are three inequivalent Fe sites. In the first Fe site, Fe is bonded to six Sm and six Al atoms to form FeSm6Al6 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent AlSm6Al2Fe4 cuboctahedra, corners with fourteen FeSm6Al6 cuboctahedra, edges with six FeSm6Al6 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent FeSm6Al2Fe4 cuboctahedra, and faces with fourteen AlSm6Al2Fe4 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Fe–Al bond distances ranging from 2.69–2.78 Å. In the secondmore »
