Title: Materials Data on YMg by Materials Project

Abstract

MgY is beta-derived structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Amm2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Mg sites. In the first Mg site, Mg is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to five Mg and seven Y atoms. There are a spread of Mg–Mg bond distances ranging from 3.31–3.51 Å. There are a spread of Mg–Y bond distances ranging from 3.26–3.63 Å. In the second Mg site, Mg is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to five Mg and seven Y atoms. There are two shorter (3.37 Å) and two longer (3.51 Å) Mg–Mg bond lengths. There are a spread of Mg–Y bond distances ranging from 3.26–3.63 Å. In the third Mg site, Mg is bonded to four Mg and eight Y atoms to form distorted MgY8Mg4 cuboctahedra that share corners with eighteen YY5Mg7 cuboctahedra, edges with four equivalent YY4Mg8 cuboctahedra, edges with six equivalent MgY8Mg4 cuboctahedra, faces with two equivalent MgY8Mg4 cuboctahedra, and faces with ten YY4Mg8 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Mg–Y bond distances ranging from 3.25–3.69 Å. There are four inequivalent Y sites. In the first Y site, Y is bonded to eight Mg and four Y atoms to form distorted YY4Mg8 cuboctahedra thatmore » share edges with four equivalent MgY8Mg4 cuboctahedra, edges with fourteen YY4Mg8 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent MgY8Mg4 cuboctahedra, and faces with ten YY4Mg8 cuboctahedra. All Y–Y bond lengths are 3.58 Å. In the second Y site, Y is bonded to seven Mg and five Y atoms to form distorted YY5Mg7 cuboctahedra that share corners with nine equivalent MgY8Mg4 cuboctahedra, corners with nine YY5Mg7 cuboctahedra, edges with ten YY4Mg8 cuboctahedra, faces with three equivalent MgY8Mg4 cuboctahedra, and faces with nine YY4Mg8 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Y–Y bond distances ranging from 3.36–3.63 Å. In the third Y site, Y is bonded to seven Mg and five Y atoms to form distorted YY5Mg7 cuboctahedra that share corners with nine equivalent MgY8Mg4 cuboctahedra, corners with nine YY5Mg7 cuboctahedra, edges with ten YY4Mg8 cuboctahedra, faces with three equivalent MgY8Mg4 cuboctahedra, and faces with nine YY4Mg8 cuboctahedra. Both Y–Y bond lengths are 3.36 Å. In the fourth Y site, Y is bonded to seven Mg and five Y atoms to form distorted YY5Mg7 cuboctahedra that share corners with nine equivalent MgY8Mg4 cuboctahedra, corners with nine YY5Mg7 cuboctahedra, edges with ten YY4Mg8 cuboctahedra, faces with three equivalent MgY8Mg4 cuboctahedra, and faces with nine YY4Mg8 cuboctahedra. The Y–Y bond length is 3.63 Å.« less
