Materials Data on DyCu4Ag by Materials Project

Abstract

DyCu4Ag crystallizes in the cubic F-43m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Dy is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Ag and twelve equivalent Cu atoms. All Dy–Ag bond lengths are 3.10 Å. All Dy–Cu bond lengths are 2.97 Å. Ag is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Dy and twelve equivalent Cu atoms. All Ag–Cu bond lengths are 2.96 Å. Cu is bonded to three equivalent Dy, three equivalent Ag, and six equivalent Cu atoms to form a mixture of face, edge, and corner-sharing CuDy3Cu6Ag3 cuboctahedra. There are three shorter (2.51 Å) and three longer (2.55 Å) Cu–Cu bond lengths.
