Materials Data on SrIn4 by Materials Project

Abstract

SrIn4 crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Sr is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to fifteen In atoms. There are a spread of Sr–In bond distances ranging from 3.55–3.92 Å. There are four inequivalent In sites. In the first In site, In is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Sr and four In atoms. There are a spread of In–In bond distances ranging from 2.98–3.10 Å. In the second In site, In is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Sr and five In atoms. There are a spread of In–In bond distances ranging from 2.97–3.29 Å. In the third In site, In is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Sr and five In atoms. The In–In bond length is 2.90 Å. In the fourth In site, In is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to three equivalent Sr and five In atoms. The In–In bond length is 3.35 Å.
