Materials Data on Tb3Ho by Materials Project

Abstract

HoTb3 is Uranium Silicide structured and crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ho is bonded to twelve equivalent Tb atoms to form HoTb12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent HoTb12 cuboctahedra, edges with twenty-four equivalent TbTb8Ho4 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent HoTb12 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve equivalent TbTb8Ho4 cuboctahedra. All Ho–Tb bond lengths are 3.55 Å. Tb is bonded to four equivalent Ho and eight equivalent Tb atoms to form TbTb8Ho4 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent TbTb8Ho4 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent HoTb12 cuboctahedra, edges with sixteen equivalent TbTb8Ho4 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent HoTb12 cuboctahedra, and faces with fourteen equivalent TbTb8Ho4 cuboctahedra. All Tb–Tb bond lengths are 3.55 Å.
