Materials Data on Ce2Mg by Materials Project
Abstract
MgCe2 is beta-derived structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Mg is bonded to three equivalent Mg and nine Ce atoms to form MgCe9Mg3 cuboctahedra that share corners with six equivalent MgCe9Mg3 cuboctahedra, corners with twelve CeCe8Mg4 cuboctahedra, edges with four equivalent MgCe9Mg3 cuboctahedra, edges with fourteen CeCe7Mg5 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent MgCe9Mg3 cuboctahedra, and faces with fourteen CeCe7Mg5 cuboctahedra. There are one shorter (3.12 Å) and two longer (3.23 Å) Mg–Mg bond lengths. There are a spread of Mg–Ce bond distances ranging from 3.29–3.47 Å. There are two inequivalent Ce sites. In the first Ce site, Ce is bonded to five equivalent Mg and seven Ce atoms to form CeCe7Mg5 cuboctahedra that share corners with six equivalent MgCe9Mg3 cuboctahedra, corners with twelve CeCe8Mg4 cuboctahedra, edges with five equivalent MgCe9Mg3 cuboctahedra, edges with thirteen CeCe7Mg5 cuboctahedra, faces with eight equivalent MgCe9Mg3 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve CeCe7Mg5 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Ce–Ce bond distances ranging from 3.21–3.31 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 six equivalent MgCe9Mg3 cuboctahedra, corners with twelve CeCe8Mg4more »
