Materials Data on Gd4Co3 by Materials Project

Abstract

Gd4Co3 crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are six inequivalent Gd sites. In the first Gd site, Gd is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to seven Co atoms. There are a spread of Gd–Co bond distances ranging from 2.86–3.04 Å. In the second Gd site, Gd is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to seven Co atoms. There are a spread of Gd–Co bond distances ranging from 2.86–3.06 Å. In the third Gd site, Gd is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to seven Co atoms. There are a spread of Gd–Co bond distances ranging from 2.86–3.04 Å. In the fourth Gd site, Gd is bonded to four Co atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing GdCo4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Gd–Co bond distances ranging from 2.82–3.03 Å. In the fifth Gd site, Gd is bonded to four Co atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing GdCo4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Gd–Co bond distances ranging from 2.82–3.03 Å. In the sixth Gd site, Gd is bonded to four Co atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing GdCo4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Gd–Co bond distances ranging from 2.81–3.01 Å. There are five inequivalent Co sites. In the first Co site, Co is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to eight Gd and one Co atom. The Co–Co bond length is 2.38 Å. In the second Co site, Co is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to eight Gd and one Co atom. The Co–Co bond length is 2.37 Å. In the third Co site, Co is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to eight Gd and one Co atom. The Co–Co bond length is 2.38 Å. In the fourth Co site, Co is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six Gd and three Co atoms. In the fifth Co site, Co is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six Gd atoms.
