Materials Data on HoSiPt by Materials Project
HoPtSi crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ho is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Pt and six equivalent Si atoms. There are a spread of Ho–Pt bond distances ranging from 2.96–3.16 Å. There are a spread of Ho–Si bond distances ranging from 2.97–3.15 Å. Pt is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Ho and four equivalent Si atoms. There are a spread of Pt–Si bond distances ranging from 2.51–2.69 Å. Si is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Ho and four equivalent Pt atoms.
