Title: Materials Data on Er5Mg by Materials Project

Abstract

MgEr5 crystallizes in the trigonal R32 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Mg is bonded to twelve Er atoms to form MgEr12 cuboctahedra that share corners with six equivalent MgEr12 cuboctahedra, corners with twelve ErEr9Mg3 cuboctahedra, edges with six equivalent MgEr12 cuboctahedra, edges with twelve ErEr10Mg2 cuboctahedra, and faces with twenty ErEr10Mg2 cuboctahedra. There are six shorter (3.41 Å) and six longer (3.51 Å) Mg–Er bond lengths. There are eleven inequivalent Er sites. In the first Er site, Er is bonded to two equivalent Mg and ten Er atoms to form ErEr10Mg2 cuboctahedra that share corners with eighteen ErEr10Mg2 cuboctahedra, edges with four equivalent MgEr12 cuboctahedra, edges with fourteen ErEr10Mg2 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent MgEr12 cuboctahedra, and faces with sixteen ErEr10Mg2 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Er–Er bond distances ranging from 3.40–3.55 Å. In the second Er site, Er is bonded to two equivalent Mg and ten Er atoms to form ErEr10Mg2 cuboctahedra that share corners with eighteen ErEr10Mg2 cuboctahedra, edges with four equivalent MgEr12 cuboctahedra, edges with fourteen ErEr10Mg2 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent MgEr12 cuboctahedra, and faces with sixteen ErEr10Mg2 cuboctahedra.
