Materials Data on TaIr by Materials Project

Abstract

IrTa is Tetraauricupride-like structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pmma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Ta sites. In the first Ta site, Ta is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to eight Ir atoms. There are a spread of Ta–Ir bond distances ranging from 2.79–2.87 Å. In the second Ta site, Ta is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to eight Ir atoms. There are a spread of Ta–Ir bond distances ranging from 2.77–2.84 Å. There are two inequivalent Ir sites. In the first Ir site, Ir is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to eight Ta atoms. In the second Ir site, Ir is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to eight Ta atoms.
