Abstract
SmFeAl is Hexagonal Laves-derived structured and 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 four Sm, seven Fe, and five Al atoms. There are a spread of Sm–Sm bond distances ranging from 3.25–3.33 Å. There are a spread of Sm–Fe bond distances ranging from 3.13–3.23 Å. All Sm–Al bond lengths are 3.18 Å. In the second Sm site, Sm is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Sm, five Fe, and seven Al atoms. There are a spread of Sm–Fe bond distances ranging from 3.08–3.32 Å. There are a spread of Sm–Al bond distances ranging from 3.11–3.27 Å. There are two inequivalent Fe sites. In the first Fe site, Fe is bonded to six Sm, two equivalent Fe, and four Al atoms to form FeSm6Al4Fe2 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent FeSm6Al2Fe4 cuboctahedra, corners with eight AlSm6Fe6 cuboctahedra, edges with six equivalent FeSm6Al4Fe2 cuboctahedra, faces with eight FeSm6Al4Fe2 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve AlSm6Fe6 cuboctahedra. Both Fe–Fe bond lengths are 2.55 Å. There are a spread of Fe–Al bond distances ranging from 2.62–2.78 Å. In themore »
