Materials Data on AlB2Pb by Materials Project

Abstract

AlB2Pb is Fluorite-derived structured and crystallizes in the cubic F-43m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Al is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent B and four equivalent Pb atoms. All Al–B bond lengths are 2.77 Å. All Al–Pb bond lengths are 2.77 Å. There are two inequivalent B sites. In the first B site, B is bonded to four equivalent Pb atoms to form corner-sharing BPb4 tetrahedra. All B–Pb bond lengths are 2.77 Å. In the second B site, B is bonded to four equivalent Al atoms to form corner-sharing BAl4 tetrahedra. Pb is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent Al and four equivalent B atoms.
