Materials Data on Ce5Mg by Materials Project
Abstract
MgCe5 is beta-derived structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Amm2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Mg is bonded to two equivalent Mg and ten Ce atoms to form MgCe10Mg2 cuboctahedra that share corners with six equivalent MgCe10Mg2 cuboctahedra, corners with twelve CeCe10Mg2 cuboctahedra, edges with eighteen CeCe12 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent MgCe10Mg2 cuboctahedra, and faces with sixteen CeCe12 cuboctahedra. Both Mg–Mg bond lengths are 3.41 Å. There are a spread of Mg–Ce bond distances ranging from 3.49–3.59 Å. There are five inequivalent Ce sites. In the first Ce site, Ce is bonded to twelve Ce atoms to form CeCe12 cuboctahedra that share corners with eighteen CeCe12 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent MgCe10Mg2 cuboctahedra, edges with ten CeCe10Mg2 cuboctahedra, faces with two equivalent MgCe10Mg2 cuboctahedra, and faces with eighteen CeCe12 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Ce–Ce bond distances ranging from 3.35–3.62 Å. In the second Ce site, Ce is bonded to four equivalent Mg and eight Ce atoms to form distorted CeCe8Mg4 cuboctahedra that share corners with eighteen CeCe12 cuboctahedra, edges with four equivalent MgCe10Mg2 cuboctahedra, edges with fourteen CeCe12 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent MgCe10Mg2 cuboctahedra, and faces with sixteen CeCe12 cuboctahedra.
