Materials Data on ReOs by Materials Project

Abstract

ReOs crystallizes in the hexagonal P-6m2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Re is bonded to six equivalent Re and six equivalent Os atoms to form distorted ReRe6Os6 cuboctahedra that share corners with eighteen equivalent ReRe6Os6 cuboctahedra, edges with six equivalent ReRe6Os6 cuboctahedra, edges with twelve equivalent OsRe6Os6 cuboctahedra, faces with eight equivalent ReRe6Os6 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve equivalent OsRe6Os6 cuboctahedra. All Re–Re bond lengths are 2.78 Å. All Re–Os bond lengths are 2.72 Å. Os is bonded to six equivalent Re and six equivalent Os atoms to form distorted OsRe6Os6 cuboctahedra that share corners with eighteen equivalent OsRe6Os6 cuboctahedra, edges with six equivalent OsRe6Os6 cuboctahedra, edges with twelve equivalent ReRe6Os6 cuboctahedra, faces with eight equivalent OsRe6Os6 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve equivalent ReRe6Os6 cuboctahedra. All Os–Os bond lengths are 2.78 Å.
