Materials Data on YbInNi4 by Materials Project

Abstract

YbInNi4 crystallizes in the cubic F-43m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Yb is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to twelve equivalent Ni and four equivalent In atoms. All Yb–Ni bond lengths are 2.89 Å. All Yb–In bond lengths are 3.02 Å. Ni is bonded to three equivalent Yb, six equivalent Ni, and three equivalent In atoms to form a mixture of face, edge, and corner-sharing NiYb3In3Ni6 cuboctahedra. There are three shorter (2.46 Å) and three longer (2.47 Å) Ni–Ni bond lengths. All Ni–In bond lengths are 2.89 Å. In is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Yb and twelve equivalent Ni atoms.
