Materials Data on YMn2 by Materials Project

YMn2 is Cubic Laves structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fd-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Y is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Y and twelve equivalent Mn atoms. All Y–Y bond lengths are 3.14 Å. All Y–Mn bond lengths are 3.00 Å. Mn is bonded to six equivalent Y and six equivalent Mn atoms to form a mixture of face, edge, and corner-sharing MnY6Mn6 cuboctahedra. All Mn–Mn bond lengths are 2.56 Å.

Materials Data on YMn2 by Materials Project

YMn2 is Hexagonal Laves structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmcm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Y is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Y and twelve Mn atoms. There are a spread of Y–Y bond distances ranging from 3.11–3.15 Å. There are a spread of Y–Mn bond distances ranging from 2.99–3.01 Å. There are three inequivalent Mn sites. In the first Mn site, Mn is bonded to six equivalent Y and six Mn atoms to form a mixture of corner, edge, and face-sharing MnY6Mn6 cuboctahedra. All Mn–Mn bond lengths are 2.56 Å. In the second Mn site, Mn is bonded to six equivalent Y and six Mn atoms to form a mixture of corner, edge, and face-sharing MnY6Mn6 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Mn–Mn bond distances ranging from 2.55–2.59 Å. In the third Mn site, Mn is bonded to six equivalent Y and six Mn atoms to form a mixture of corner, edge, and face-sharing MnY6Mn6 cuboctahedra.
