Materials Data on SrCuSn2 by Materials Project

Abstract

SrCuSn2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmcm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Sr is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Cu and ten Sn atoms. All Sr–Cu bond lengths are 3.51 Å. There are a spread of Sr–Sn bond distances ranging from 3.50–3.76 Å. Cu is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Sr and five Sn atoms. There are a spread of Cu–Sn bond distances ranging from 2.58–2.75 Å. There are two inequivalent Sn sites. In the first Sn site, Sn is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Sr and four equivalent Cu atoms. In the second Sn site, Sn is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Sr, one Cu, and two equivalent Sn atoms. Both Sn–Sn bond lengths are 2.85 Å.
