Materials Data on YMg14Al by Materials Project
Abstract
Mg14YAl crystallizes in the hexagonal P-6m2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are five inequivalent Mg sites. In the first Mg site, Mg is bonded to ten Mg and two equivalent Al atoms to form MgMg10Al2 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent YMg12 cuboctahedra, corners with fourteen MgMg10Al2 cuboctahedra, edges with two equivalent AlMg12 cuboctahedra, edges with sixteen MgMg10Al2 cuboctahedra, faces with two equivalent AlMg12 cuboctahedra, and faces with eighteen MgMg10Al2 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Mg–Mg bond distances ranging from 3.14–3.24 Å. Both Mg–Al bond lengths are 3.22 Å. In the second Mg site, Mg is bonded to ten Mg and two equivalent Y atoms to form MgY2Mg10 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent AlMg12 cuboctahedra, corners with fourteen MgMg10Al2 cuboctahedra, edges with two equivalent YMg12 cuboctahedra, edges with sixteen MgY2Mg10 cuboctahedra, faces with two equivalent YMg12 cuboctahedra, and faces with eighteen MgMg10Al2 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Mg–Mg bond distances ranging from 3.13–3.30 Å. Both Mg–Y bond lengths are 3.22 Å. In the third Mg site, Mg is bonded to ten Mg and two equivalent Y atoms to form MgY2Mg10 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent AlMg12 cuboctahedra, corners with fourteen MgMg10Al2more »
