Materials Data on KSc2Co by Materials Project

Abstract

KSc2Co crystallizes in the cubic F-43m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. K is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent Sc and four equivalent Co atoms. All K–Sc bond lengths are 3.09 Å. All K–Co bond lengths are 3.09 Å. There are two inequivalent Sc sites. In the first Sc site, Sc is bonded to four equivalent K atoms to form distorted corner-sharing ScK4 tetrahedra. In the second Sc site, Sc is bonded to four equivalent Co atoms to form distorted corner-sharing ScCo4 tetrahedra. All Sc–Co bond lengths are 3.09 Å. Co is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent K and four equivalent Sc atoms.
