Abstract
MgCe2 is beta-derived structured and crystallizes in the trigonal R32 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Mg sites. In the first Mg site, Mg is bonded to three equivalent Mg and nine Ce atoms to form distorted MgCe9Mg3 cuboctahedra that share corners with six equivalent CeCe6Mg6 cuboctahedra, corners with twelve MgCe9Mg3 cuboctahedra, edges with six equivalent MgCe9Mg3 cuboctahedra, edges with twelve CeCe8Mg4 cuboctahedra, faces with four MgCe9Mg3 cuboctahedra, and faces with sixteen CeCe8Mg4 cuboctahedra. All Mg–Mg bond lengths are 3.34 Å. There are a spread of Mg–Ce bond distances ranging from 3.34–3.41 Å. In the second Mg site, Mg is bonded to three equivalent Mg and nine Ce atoms to form distorted MgCe9Mg3 cuboctahedra that share corners with six equivalent CeCe6Mg6 cuboctahedra, corners with twelve MgCe9Mg3 cuboctahedra, edges with six equivalent MgCe9Mg3 cuboctahedra, edges with twelve CeCe8Mg4 cuboctahedra, faces with four MgCe9Mg3 cuboctahedra, and faces with sixteen CeCe8Mg4 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Mg–Ce bond distances ranging from 3.34–3.41 Å. In the third Mg site, Mg is bonded to three equivalent Mg and nine Ce atoms to form distorted MgCe9Mg3 cuboctahedra that share corners with six equivalent CeCe6Mg6 cuboctahedra, corners with twelve MgCe9Mg3 cuboctahedra, edgesmore »
