Title: Materials Data on Er3Ga9Pt2 by Materials Project

Abstract

Er3Pt2Ga9 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Immm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Er sites. In the first Er site, Er is bonded to twelve Ga atoms to form ErGa12 cuboctahedra that share edges with two equivalent GaEr4Ga4Pt4 cuboctahedra and faces with two equivalent ErGa12 cuboctahedra. There are eight shorter (3.14 Å) and four longer (3.24 Å) Er–Ga bond lengths. In the second Er site, Er is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Pt and twelve Ga atoms. Both Er–Pt bond lengths are 3.05 Å. There are a spread of Er–Ga bond distances ranging from 3.07–3.46 Å. Pt is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Er and eight Ga atoms. There are a spread of Pt–Ga bond distances ranging from 2.59–2.84 Å. There are three inequivalent Ga sites. In the first Ga site, Ga is bonded to four equivalent Er, four equivalent Pt, and four equivalent Ga atoms to form GaEr4Ga4Pt4 cuboctahedra that share edges with two equivalent ErGa12 cuboctahedra and faces with two equivalent GaEr4Ga4Pt4 cuboctahedra. All Ga–Ga bond lengths are 2.71 Å. In the second Ga site, Ga is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to four Er, one Pt, and fourmore » Ga atoms. There are a spread of Ga–Ga bond distances ranging from 2.53–2.68 Å. In the third Ga site, Ga is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to four Er, two equivalent Pt, and four Ga atoms.« less
