Materials Data on ZnCo by Materials Project

Abstract

ZnCo crystallizes in the hexagonal P-6m2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Co is bonded to six equivalent Co and six equivalent Zn atoms to form CoZn6Co6 cuboctahedra that share corners with eighteen equivalent CoZn6Co6 cuboctahedra, edges with six equivalent CoZn6Co6 cuboctahedra, edges with twelve equivalent ZnZn6Co6 cuboctahedra, faces with eight equivalent CoZn6Co6 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve equivalent ZnZn6Co6 cuboctahedra. All Co–Co bond lengths are 2.61 Å. All Co–Zn bond lengths are 2.57 Å. Zn is bonded to six equivalent Co and six equivalent Zn atoms to form ZnZn6Co6 cuboctahedra that share corners with eighteen equivalent ZnZn6Co6 cuboctahedra, edges with six equivalent ZnZn6Co6 cuboctahedra, edges with twelve equivalent CoZn6Co6 cuboctahedra, faces with eight equivalent ZnZn6Co6 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve equivalent CoZn6Co6 cuboctahedra. All Zn–Zn bond lengths are 2.61 Å.
