Materials Data on LuSb3 by Materials Project
LuSb3 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Lu3+ is bonded to twelve equivalent Sb1- atoms to form a mixture of corner and face-sharing LuSb12 cuboctahedra. There are six shorter (3.27 Å) and six longer (3.40 Å) Lu–Sb bond lengths. Sb1- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Lu3+ atoms.
