Materials Data on InBi by Materials Project

Abstract

InBi is Tetraauricupride structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/nmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. In is bonded to four equivalent In and eight equivalent Bi atoms to form InIn4Bi8 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent InIn4Bi8 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent InIn4Bi8 cuboctahedra, edges with sixteen equivalent BiIn8Bi4 cuboctahedra, faces with eight equivalent BiIn8Bi4 cuboctahedra, and faces with ten equivalent InIn4Bi8 cuboctahedra. All In–In bond lengths are 3.44 Å. There are four shorter (3.53 Å) and four longer (3.57 Å) In–Bi bond lengths. Bi is bonded to eight equivalent In and four equivalent Bi atoms to form BiIn8Bi4 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent BiIn8Bi4 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent BiIn8Bi4 cuboctahedra, edges with sixteen equivalent InIn4Bi8 cuboctahedra, faces with eight equivalent InIn4Bi8 cuboctahedra, and faces with ten equivalent BiIn8Bi4 cuboctahedra. All Bi–Bi bond lengths are 3.44 Å.
