Title: Materials Data on YFe3 by Materials Project

Abstract

YFe3 crystallizes in the trigonal R-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Y sites. In the first Y site, Y is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to twelve Fe atoms. There are a spread of Y–Fe bond distances ranging from 2.97–3.07 Å. In the second Y site, Y is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to eighteen Fe atoms. There are six shorter (2.97 Å) and twelve longer (3.24 Å) Y–Fe bond lengths. There are three inequivalent Fe sites. In the first Fe site, Fe is bonded to five Y and seven Fe atoms to form a mixture of edge, face, and corner-sharing FeY5Fe7 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Fe–Fe bond distances ranging from 2.46–2.58 Å. In the second Fe site, Fe is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Y and six equivalent Fe atoms. In the third Fe site, Fe is bonded to six equivalent Y and six equivalent Fe atoms to form FeY6Fe6 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent FeY5Fe7 cuboctahedra, edges with six equivalent FeY6Fe6 cuboctahedra, and faces with eighteen equivalent FeY5Fe7 cuboctahedra.
