Materials Data on In5Bi3 by Materials Project
In5Bi3 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mcm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent In sites. In the first In site, In is bonded to six Bi atoms to form corner-sharing InBi6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–44°. There are four shorter (3.21 Å) and two longer (3.37 Å) In–Bi bond lengths. In the second In site, In is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to four equivalent In and five Bi atoms. There are a spread of In–In bond distances ranging from 3.35–3.48 Å. There are a spread of In–Bi bond distances ranging from 3.31–3.42 Å. There are two inequivalent Bi sites. In the first Bi site, Bi is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to ten In atoms. In the second Bi site, Bi is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight In atoms.
