Materials Data on Hf2N by Materials Project
Hf2N is Rutile structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal P4_2/mnm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Hf is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to three equivalent N atoms. There are one shorter (2.23 Å) and two longer (2.25 Å) Hf–N bond lengths. N is bonded to six equivalent Hf atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing NHf6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 46°.
