Materials Data on AlBMo by Materials Project

Abstract

MoAlB crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmcm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Mo is bonded in a 11-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Al and six equivalent B atoms. There are four shorter (2.71 Å) and one longer (2.98 Å) Mo–Al bond lengths. There are two shorter (2.36 Å) and four longer (2.38 Å) Mo–B bond lengths. Al is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Mo, four equivalent Al, and one B atom. All Al–Al bond lengths are 2.67 Å. The Al–B bond length is 2.32 Å. B is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Mo, one Al, and two equivalent B atoms. Both B–B bond lengths are 1.82 Å.
