Materials Data on EuCuSb by Materials Project
EuCuSb crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Eu2+ is bonded to six equivalent Sb3- atoms to form a mixture of face, edge, and corner-sharing EuSb6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 45°. All Eu–Sb bond lengths are 3.39 Å. Cu1+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent Sb3- atoms. All Cu–Sb bond lengths are 2.61 Å. Sb3- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Eu2+ and three equivalent Cu1+ atoms.
