Materials Data on Dy(BIr)2 by Materials Project

Abstract

Dy(IrB)2 is alpha Pu-derived structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Fddd space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Dy is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent Ir and ten equivalent B atoms. There are four shorter (3.06 Å) and four longer (3.20 Å) Dy–Ir bond lengths. There are a spread of Dy–B bond distances ranging from 2.98–3.33 Å. Ir is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Dy and four equivalent B atoms. There are two shorter (2.08 Å) and two longer (2.18 Å) Ir–B bond lengths. B is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Dy and four equivalent Ir atoms.
