Materials Data on Mg14ZrCd by Materials Project
Abstract
Mg14ZrCd 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 Zr atoms to form MgMg10Zr2 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent CdMg12 cuboctahedra, corners with fourteen MgMg10Zr2 cuboctahedra, edges with two equivalent ZrMg12 cuboctahedra, edges with sixteen MgMg10Zr2 cuboctahedra, faces with two equivalent ZrMg12 cuboctahedra, and faces with eighteen MgMg10Zr2 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Mg–Mg bond distances ranging from 3.14–3.26 Å. Both Mg–Zr bond lengths are 3.20 Å. In the second Mg site, Mg is bonded to ten Mg and two equivalent Cd atoms to form distorted MgMg10Cd2 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent ZrMg12 cuboctahedra, corners with fourteen MgMg10Zr2 cuboctahedra, edges with two equivalent CdMg12 cuboctahedra, edges with sixteen MgMg10Cd2 cuboctahedra, faces with two equivalent CdMg12 cuboctahedra, and faces with eighteen MgMg10Zr2 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Mg–Mg bond distances ranging from 3.15–3.22 Å. Both Mg–Cd bond lengths are 3.20 Å. In the third Mg site, Mg is bonded to ten Mg and two equivalent Zr atoms to form MgMg10Zr2 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent CdMg12 cuboctahedra, corners with fourteenmore »
