Materials Data on Lu6Ta4Al43 by Materials Project
Abstract
Lu6Ta4Al43 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mcm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Lu is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to one Lu, one Ta, and fifteen Al atoms. The Lu–Lu bond length is 3.46 Å. The Lu–Ta bond length is 3.46 Å. There are a spread of Lu–Al bond distances ranging from 3.05–3.46 Å. There are two inequivalent Ta sites. In the first Ta site, Ta is bonded to twelve Al atoms to form TaAl12 cuboctahedra that share edges with six equivalent AlTa2Al10 cuboctahedra. There are six shorter (2.69 Å) and six longer (2.91 Å) Ta–Al bond lengths. In the second Ta site, Ta is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Lu and ten Al atoms. There are a spread of Ta–Al bond distances ranging from 2.65–2.76 Å. There are seven inequivalent Al sites. In the first Al site, Al is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to one Lu, two Ta, and nine Al atoms. There are a spread of Al–Al bond distances ranging from 2.77–3.07 Å. In the second Al site, Al is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Lu, one Ta, and nine Al atoms. There are a spread of Al–Al bond distances rangingmore »
