Materials Data on Ho3(In2Co)2 by Materials Project

Abstract

Ho3(CoIn2)2 crystallizes in the hexagonal P-6 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ho is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to three Co and seven In atoms. There are two shorter (2.73 Å) and one longer (3.08 Å) Ho–Co bond lengths. There are a spread of Ho–In bond distances ranging from 3.04–3.47 Å. There are two inequivalent Co sites. In the first Co site, Co is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Ho and three equivalent In atoms. All Co–In bond lengths are 3.21 Å. In the second Co site, Co is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Ho and six equivalent In atoms. All Co–In bond lengths are 2.83 Å. There are two inequivalent In sites. In the first In site, In is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent Ho and six equivalent In atoms. All In–In bond lengths are 3.30 Å. In the second In site, In is bonded in a 11-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Ho, three Co, and two equivalent In atoms.
