Materials Data on Lu2Ga8Co by Materials Project
Abstract
Lu2CoGa8 crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Lu is bonded to twelve Ga atoms to form LuGa12 cuboctahedra that share corners with eight equivalent LuGa12 cuboctahedra, edges with twelve GaLu4Ga8 cuboctahedra, faces with five equivalent LuGa12 cuboctahedra, and faces with eight GaLu4Ga8 cuboctahedra. There are four shorter (2.95 Å) and eight longer (2.99 Å) Lu–Ga bond lengths. Co is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight Ga atoms. All Co–Ga bond lengths are 2.47 Å. There are five inequivalent Ga sites. In the first Ga site, Ga is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Lu, two equivalent Co, and seven Ga atoms. There are a spread of Ga–Ga bond distances ranging from 2.57–2.99 Å. In the second Ga site, Ga is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Lu, two equivalent Co, and seven Ga atoms. There are one shorter (2.57 Å) and two longer (2.91 Å) Ga–Ga bond lengths. In the third Ga site, Ga is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Lu, two equivalent Co, and seven Ga atoms. Both Ga–Lu bond lengths are 2.95 Å. There are two shorter (2.91 Å) and four longer (2.99 Å)more »
