Materials Data on Er3Co6Sn5 by Materials Project
Abstract
Er3Co6Sn5 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Immm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Er sites. In the first Er site, Er is bonded to four equivalent Co and eight equivalent Sn atoms to form distorted ErCo4Sn8 cuboctahedra that share edges with two equivalent SnEr4Co8 cuboctahedra and faces with two equivalent ErCo4Sn8 cuboctahedra. All Er–Co bond lengths are 2.94 Å. All Er–Sn bond lengths are 3.42 Å. In the second Er site, Er is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six Co and eight Sn atoms. There are two shorter (2.93 Å) and four longer (3.20 Å) Er–Co bond lengths. There are a spread of Er–Sn bond distances ranging from 3.12–3.29 Å. There are two inequivalent Co sites. In the first Co site, Co is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Er, four equivalent Co, and four Sn atoms. All Co–Co bond lengths are 2.55 Å. There are two shorter (2.59 Å) and two longer (2.86 Å) Co–Sn bond lengths. In the second Co site, Co is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to three Er, three Co, and four Sn atoms. The Co–Co bond length is 2.65 Å. There are a spread of Co–Sn bond distancesmore »
