Materials Data on YInCu4 by Materials Project

Abstract

YInCu4 crystallizes in the cubic F-43m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Y is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to twelve equivalent Cu and four equivalent In atoms. All Y–Cu bond lengths are 3.00 Å. All Y–In bond lengths are 3.14 Å. Cu is bonded to three equivalent Y, six equivalent Cu, and three equivalent In atoms to form a mixture of edge, corner, and face-sharing CuY3In3Cu6 cuboctahedra. There are three shorter (2.55 Å) and three longer (2.57 Å) Cu–Cu bond lengths. All Cu–In bond lengths are 3.00 Å. In is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Y and twelve equivalent Cu atoms.
