Materials Data on Lu4Co3 by Materials Project
Lu4Co3 crystallizes in the trigonal P-3 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Lu sites. In the first Lu site, Lu is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to seven Co atoms. There are a spread of Lu–Co bond distances ranging from 2.79–2.94 Å. In the second Lu site, Lu is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four Co atoms. There are a spread of Lu–Co bond distances ranging from 2.71–2.99 Å. There are three inequivalent Co sites. In the first Co site, Co is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Lu and three equivalent Co atoms. All Co–Co bond lengths are 2.29 Å. In the second Co site, Co is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to eight Lu and one Co atom. In the third Co site, Co is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Lu atoms.
