Materials Data on NdInCu4 by Materials Project

Abstract

NdCu4In crystallizes in the cubic F-43m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Nd is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to twelve equivalent Cu and four equivalent In atoms. All Nd–Cu bond lengths are 3.05 Å. All Nd–In bond lengths are 3.18 Å. Cu is bonded to three equivalent Nd, six equivalent Cu, and three equivalent In atoms to form a mixture of edge, corner, and face-sharing CuNd3In3Cu6 cuboctahedra. There are three shorter (2.59 Å) and three longer (2.61 Å) Cu–Cu bond lengths. All Cu–In bond lengths are 3.05 Å. In is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Nd and twelve equivalent Cu atoms.
