Materials Data on Nd6Cd5Si7 by Materials Project
Abstract
Nd6Cd5Si7 crystallizes in the monoclinic Cm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are six inequivalent Nd3+ sites. In the first Nd3+ site, Nd3+ is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to seven Si4- atoms. There are a spread of Nd–Si bond distances ranging from 3.07–3.25 Å. In the second Nd3+ site, Nd3+ is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five Si4- atoms. There are a spread of Nd–Si bond distances ranging from 3.05–3.19 Å. In the third Nd3+ site, Nd3+ is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five Si4- atoms. There are a spread of Nd–Si bond distances ranging from 3.01–3.21 Å. In the fourth Nd3+ site, Nd3+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight Si4- atoms. There are a spread of Nd–Si bond distances ranging from 3.10–3.48 Å. In the fifth Nd3+ site, Nd3+ is bonded to six Si4- atoms to form distorted NdSi6 pentagonal pyramids that share corners with four equivalent NdSi6 pentagonal pyramids, corners with three equivalent CdSi4 tetrahedra, and edges with two equivalent NdSi6 pentagonal pyramids. There are a spread of Nd–Si bond distances ranging from 3.07–3.17 Å. In the sixth Nd3+ site, Nd3+ is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five Si4- atoms. Theremore »
