Materials Data on Zr3(Sn2Sb)2 by Materials Project

Abstract

Zr3(Sn2Sb)2 is Titanium Disilicide-derived structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic C2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Zr sites. In the first Zr site, Zr is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to six Sn and four equivalent Sb atoms. There are a spread of Zr–Sn bond distances ranging from 3.02–3.23 Å. There are a spread of Zr–Sb bond distances ranging from 3.01–3.24 Å. In the second Zr site, Zr is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to eight Sn and two equivalent Sb atoms. There are a spread of Zr–Sn bond distances ranging from 3.03–3.24 Å. Both Zr–Sb bond lengths are 3.01 Å. There are three inequivalent Sn sites. In the first Sn site, Sn is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to five Zr and five Sn atoms. There are a spread of Sn–Sn bond distances ranging from 3.01–3.26 Å. In the second Sn site, Sn is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to five Zr, one Sn, and four equivalent Sb atoms. There are a spread of Sn–Sb bond distances ranging from 3.05–3.24 Å. In the third Sn site, Sn is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to five Zr, three equivalent Sn, and two equivalent Sb atoms. Both Sn–Sb bond lengths are 3.05 Å. Sb is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to five Zr and five Sn atoms.
