Materials Data on LaAlCo4 by Materials Project
Abstract
LaCo4Al crystallizes in the orthorhombic Amm2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. La is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to fifteen Co and three equivalent Al atoms. There are three shorter (3.02 Å) and twelve longer (3.24 Å) La–Co bond lengths. All La–Al bond lengths are 3.02 Å. There are three inequivalent Co sites. In the first Co site, Co is bonded to three equivalent La, six Co, and three equivalent Al atoms to form distorted CoLa3Al3Co6 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve CoLa4Al2Co6 cuboctahedra, edges with six equivalent CoLa3Al3Co6 cuboctahedra, and faces with twenty CoLa3Al3Co6 cuboctahedra. All Co–Co bond lengths are 2.42 Å. There are two shorter (3.01 Å) and one longer (3.03 Å) Co–Al bond lengths. In the second Co site, Co is bonded to four equivalent La, six Co, and two equivalent Al atoms to form distorted CoLa4Al2Co6 cuboctahedra that share corners with twenty CoLa3Al3Co6 cuboctahedra, edges with ten CoLa4Al2Co6 cuboctahedra, and faces with sixteen CoLa3Al3Co6 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Co–Co bond distances ranging from 2.55–2.68 Å. Both Co–Al bond lengths are 2.46 Å. In the third Co site, Co is bonded to four equivalent La, six Co, and two equivalent Al atoms to formmore »
