Materials Data on DyIn3 by Materials Project

Abstract

DyIn3 is Uranium Silicide structured and crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Dy is bonded to twelve equivalent In atoms to form DyIn12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent DyIn12 cuboctahedra, edges with twenty-four equivalent InDy4In8 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent DyIn12 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve equivalent InDy4In8 cuboctahedra. All Dy–In bond lengths are 3.28 Å. In is bonded to four equivalent Dy and eight equivalent In atoms to form distorted InDy4In8 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent InDy4In8 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent DyIn12 cuboctahedra, edges with sixteen equivalent InDy4In8 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent DyIn12 cuboctahedra, and faces with fourteen equivalent InDy4In8 cuboctahedra. All In–In bond lengths are 3.28 Å.
