Materials Data on CeB2Ir3 by Materials Project
CeIr3B2 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ce is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ce, twelve equivalent Ir, and six equivalent B atoms. Both Ce–Ce bond lengths are 3.20 Å. All Ce–Ir bond lengths are 3.17 Å. All Ce–B bond lengths are 3.16 Å. Ir is bonded in a distorted square co-planar geometry to four equivalent Ce and four equivalent B atoms. All Ir–B bond lengths are 2.25 Å. B is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Ce and six equivalent Ir atoms.
