Materials Data on TbB6 by Materials Project
TbB6 is Calcium hexaboride structured and crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Tb is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to twenty-four equivalent B atoms. All Tb–B bond lengths are 3.01 Å. B is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Tb and five equivalent B atoms. There is one shorter (1.63 Å) and four longer (1.75 Å) B–B bond length.
