Materials Data on Ho2MgSe4 by Materials Project
Abstract
MgHo2Se4 is Spinel-like structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Mg2+ is bonded to four Se2- atoms to form MgSe4 tetrahedra that share corners with six HoSe6 octahedra and edges with three HoSe6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 59–66°. There are a spread of Mg–Se bond distances ranging from 2.53–2.61 Å. There are two inequivalent Ho3+ sites. In the first Ho3+ site, Ho3+ is bonded to six Se2- atoms to form HoSe6 octahedra that share corners with four equivalent HoSe6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent MgSe4 tetrahedra, edges with four HoSe6 octahedra, and edges with two equivalent MgSe4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 50–53°. There are a spread of Ho–Se bond distances ranging from 2.82–2.90 Å. In the second Ho3+ site, Ho3+ is bonded to six Se2- atoms to form HoSe6 octahedra that share corners with eight HoSe6 octahedra, corners with four equivalent MgSe4 tetrahedra, edges with two equivalent HoSe6 octahedra, and an edgeedge with one MgSe4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 46–53°. There are a spread of Ho–Se bond distances ranging from 2.83–2.92 Å. There are three inequivalent Se2- sites. In the first Se2-more »
