Materials Data on ZrTi2Ni9 by Materials Project

Abstract

ZrTi2Ni9 is beta Cu3Ti-derived structured and crystallizes in the trigonal R-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Zr is bonded to twelve Ni atoms to form ZrNi12 cuboctahedra that share corners with six equivalent ZrNi12 cuboctahedra, corners with twelve NiZrTi3Ni8 cuboctahedra, edges with eighteen NiZr2Ti2Ni8 cuboctahedra, faces with eight equivalent TiNi12 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve NiZr2Ti2Ni8 cuboctahedra. There are six shorter (2.58 Å) and six longer (2.64 Å) Zr–Ni bond lengths. Ti is bonded to twelve Ni atoms to form TiNi12 cuboctahedra that share corners with six NiZr2Ti2Ni8 cuboctahedra, corners with nine equivalent TiNi12 cuboctahedra, edges with twenty-one NiZr2Ti2Ni8 cuboctahedra, faces with three equivalent TiNi12 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent ZrNi12 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve NiZr2Ti2Ni8 cuboctahedra.
