Title: Materials Data on CeMg3 by Materials Project

Abstract

Mg3Ce is beta Cu3Ti-like structured and crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc 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 Ce atoms to form distorted MgCe4Mg8 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent CeMg12 cuboctahedra, corners with fourteen MgCe4Mg8 cuboctahedra, edges with six equivalent CeMg12 cuboctahedra, edges with twelve MgCe4Mg8 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent CeMg12 cuboctahedra, and faces with sixteen MgCe4Mg8 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Mg–Mg bond distances ranging from 3.23–3.47 Å. There are two shorter (3.28 Å) and two longer (3.41 Å) Mg–Ce bond lengths. In the second Mg site, Mg is bonded to eight Mg and four equivalent Ce atoms to form distorted MgCe4Mg8 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent CeMg12 cuboctahedra, corners with fourteen MgCe4Mg8 cuboctahedra, edges with six equivalent CeMg12 cuboctahedra, edges with twelve MgCe4Mg8 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent CeMg12 cuboctahedra, and faces with sixteen MgCe4Mg8 cuboctahedra. Both Mg–Mg bond lengths are 3.23 Å. There are two shorter (3.28 Å) and two longer (3.41 Å) Mg–Ce bond lengths.
