Title: Materials Data on ErAlNi4 by Materials Project

Abstract

ErNi4Al crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Er is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to fourteen Ni and four equivalent Al atoms. There are a spread of Er–Ni bond distances ranging from 2.81–3.17 Å. All Er–Al bond lengths are 3.20 Å. There are two inequivalent Ni sites. In the first Ni site, Ni is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Er, seven Ni, and two equivalent Al atoms. There are a spread of Ni–Ni bond distances ranging from 2.47–2.86 Å. Both Ni–Al bond lengths are 2.45 Å. In the second Ni site, Ni is bonded to four equivalent Er, six Ni, and two equivalent Al atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge, face, and corner-sharing NiEr4Al2Ni6 cuboctahedra. Both Ni–Ni bond lengths are 2.49 Å. Both Ni–Al bond lengths are 2.45 Å. Al is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Er and eight Ni atoms.
