Materials Data on Dy2In16Pt7 by Materials Project
Dy2Pt7In16 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Dy is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Pt and ten In atoms. All Dy–Pt bond lengths are 3.18 Å. There are a spread of Dy–In bond distances ranging from 3.29–3.41 Å. There are three inequivalent Pt sites. In the first Pt site, Pt is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight In atoms. There are four shorter (2.76 Å) and four longer (2.81 Å) Pt–In bond lengths. In the second Pt site, Pt is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight In atoms. There are a spread of Pt–In bond distances ranging from 2.77–2.79 Å. In the third Pt site, Pt is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Dy and seven In atoms. There are a spread of Pt–In bond distances ranging from 2.78–2.93 Å. There are five inequivalent In sites. In the first In site, In is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Dy and four Pt atoms. In the second In site, In is bonded to one Dy and four Pt atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing InDyPt4 tetrahedra. In the third In site, In is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three Pt atoms. In the fourth In site, In is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Dy and three Pt atoms. In the fifth In site, In is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Dy and two equivalent Pt atoms.
