Materials Data on Dy3In5 by Materials Project

Abstract

Dy3In5 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmcm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Dy sites. In the first Dy site, Dy is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to ten In atoms. There are a spread of Dy–In bond distances ranging from 3.20–3.50 Å. In the second Dy site, Dy is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to nine In atoms. There are a spread of Dy–In bond distances ranging from 3.09–3.50 Å. There are three inequivalent In sites. In the first In site, In is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to six Dy and four In atoms. There are a spread of In–In bond distances ranging from 3.06–3.32 Å. In the second In site, In is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five Dy and six In atoms. Both In–In bond lengths are 3.20 Å. In the third In site, In is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to six Dy and four In atoms. The In–In bond length is 3.20 Å.
