Materials Data on Tm2Ga8Co by Materials Project
Abstract
Tm2CoGa8 crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Tm is bonded to twelve Ga atoms to form TmGa12 cuboctahedra that share corners with eight equivalent TmGa12 cuboctahedra, edges with twelve GaTm4Ga8 cuboctahedra, faces with five equivalent TmGa12 cuboctahedra, and faces with eight GaTm4Ga8 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Tm–Ga bond distances ranging from 2.96–3.01 Å. Co is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight Ga atoms. All Co–Ga bond lengths are 2.47 Å. There are six inequivalent Ga sites. In the first Ga site, Ga is bonded to four equivalent Tm and eight Ga atoms to form distorted GaTm4Ga8 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent GaTm4Ga8 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent TmGa12 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent GaTm4Ga8 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent TmGa12 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve GaTm4Ga8 cuboctahedra. There are four shorter (2.98 Å) and four longer (2.99 Å) Ga–Ga bond lengths. In the second Ga site, Ga is bonded to four equivalent Tm and eight Ga atoms to form distorted GaTm4Ga8 cuboctahedra that share corners with eight equivalent GaTm4Ga8 cuboctahedra, edges with four equivalent TmGa12 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent GaTm4Ga8 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent TmGa12 cuboctahedra, andmore »
