Materials Data on Sm(CoB)2 by Materials Project

SmCo2B2 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Sm3+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent B3- atoms. All Sm–B bond lengths are 2.96 Å. Co+1.50+ is bonded to four equivalent B3- atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing CoB4 tetrahedra. All Co–B bond lengths are 2.00 Å. B3- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Sm3+ and four equivalent Co+1.50+ atoms.
