Materials Data on Nb3Sb by Materials Project
Nb3Sb crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3n space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Nb is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Nb and four equivalent Sb atoms. Both Nb–Nb bond lengths are 2.66 Å. All Nb–Sb bond lengths are 2.97 Å. Sb is bonded to twelve equivalent Nb atoms to form a mixture of edge and face-sharing SbNb12 cuboctahedra.
