Materials Data on Sm2In8Co by Materials Project
Abstract
Sm2CoIn8 crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Sm is bonded to twelve In atoms to form SmIn12 cuboctahedra that share corners with eight equivalent SmIn12 cuboctahedra, edges with twelve InSm4In8 cuboctahedra, faces with five equivalent SmIn12 cuboctahedra, and faces with eight InSm4In8 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Sm–In bond distances ranging from 3.26–3.31 Å. Co is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight In atoms. All Co–In bond lengths are 2.73 Å. There are five inequivalent In sites. In the first In site, In is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Sm, two equivalent Co, and seven In atoms. There are a spread of In–In bond distances ranging from 2.86–3.29 Å. In the second In site, In is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Sm, two equivalent Co, and seven In atoms. There are one shorter (2.86 Å) and two longer (3.23 Å) In–In bond lengths. In the third In site, In is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Sm, two equivalent Co, and seven In atoms. Both In–Sm bond lengths are 3.26 Å. There are two shorter (3.23 Å) and four longer (3.29 Å) In–In bondmore »
