Materials Data on Mg3Bi by Materials Project
Abstract
Mg3Bi crystallizes in the orthorhombic Imm2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Mg sites. In the first Mg site, Mg is bonded to eight Mg and four equivalent Bi atoms to form distorted MgMg8Bi4 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent BiMg10Bi2 cuboctahedra, corners with fourteen equivalent MgMg8Bi4 cuboctahedra, edges with four equivalent BiMg10Bi2 cuboctahedra, edges with fourteen MgMg8Bi4 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent BiMg10Bi2 cuboctahedra, and faces with fourteen MgMg8Bi4 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Mg–Mg bond distances ranging from 3.26–3.30 Å. There are two shorter (3.30 Å) and two longer (3.32 Å) Mg–Bi bond lengths. In the second Mg site, Mg is bonded to nine Mg and three equivalent Bi atoms to form distorted MgMg9Bi3 cuboctahedra that share corners with eighteen equivalent MgMg9Bi3 cuboctahedra, edges with six equivalent BiMg10Bi2 cuboctahedra, edges with twelve MgMg8Bi4 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent BiMg10Bi2 cuboctahedra, and faces with fourteen MgMg8Bi4 cuboctahedra. There are two shorter (3.29 Å) and four longer (3.31 Å) Mg–Mg bond lengths. There are one shorter (3.25 Å) and two longer (3.30 Å) Mg–Bi bond lengths. Bi is bonded to ten Mg and two equivalent Bi atoms to form distorted BiMg10Bi2 cuboctahedra that sharemore »
