In the first Se2- site, Se2- is bonded to two Mg2+ and three Tb3+ atoms to form distorted SeTb3Mg2 trigonal bipyramids that share corners with two equivalent SeTb3Mg2 square pyramids, corners with three equivalent SeTb3Mg tetrahedra, corners with two equivalent SeTb3Mg2 trigonal bipyramids, edges with five SeTb3Mg2 square pyramids, and edges with three SeTb3Mg2 trigonal bipyramids. In the second Se2- site, Se2- is bonded to two Mg2+ and three Tb3+ atoms to form distorted SeTb3Mg2 trigonal bipyramids that share corners with six SeTb3Mg2 square pyramids, corners with two equivalent SeTb3Mg tetrahedra, corners with two equivalent SeTb3Mg2 trigonal bipyramids, edges with three SeTb3Mg2 square pyramids, an edgeedge with one SeTb3Mg tetrahedra, and edges with three SeTb3Mg2 trigonal bipyramids. In the third Se2- site, Se2- is bonded to one Mg2+ and three Tb3+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing SeTb3Mg tetrahedra. In the fourth Se2- site, Se2- is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to one Mg2+ and three Tb3+ atoms. In the fifth Se2- site, Se2- is bonded to two Mg2+ and three Tb3+ atoms to form distorted SeTb3Mg2 square pyramids that share a cornercorner with one SeTb3Mg tetrahedra, corners with eight SeTb3Mg2 trigonal bipyramids, edges with four SeTb3Mg2 square pyramids, an edgeedge with one SeTb3Mg tetrahedra, and edges with two SeTb3Mg2 trigonal bipyramids. In the sixth Se2- site, Se2- is bonded to two Mg2+ and three Tb3+ atoms to form distorted SeTb3Mg2 square pyramids that share corners with two equivalent SeTb4Mg square pyramids, a cornercorner with one SeTb3Mg tetrahedra, corners with six SeTb3Mg2 trigonal bipyramids, edges with three SeTb3Mg2 square pyramids, an edgeedge with one SeTb3Mg tetrahedra, and edges with three SeTb3Mg2 trigonal bipyramids. In the seventh Se2- site, Se2- is bonded to one Mg2+ and four Tb3+ atoms to form distorted SeTb4Mg square pyramids that share corners with two equivalent SeTb3Mg2 square pyramids, corners with two equivalent SeTb3Mg tetrahedra, corners with two equivalent SeTb4Mg trigonal bipyramids, edges with three SeTb3Mg2 square pyramids, an edgeedge with one SeTb3Mg tetrahedra, and edges with five SeTb3Mg2 trigonal bipyramids. In the eighth Se2- site, Se2- is bonded to one Mg2+ and four Tb3+ atoms to form distorted SeTb4Mg trigonal bipyramids that share corners with eight SeTb3Mg2 square pyramids, corners with three equivalent SeTb3Mg tetrahedra, edges with two SeTb3Mg2 square pyramids, and edges with four SeTb3Mg2 trigonal bipyramids.

Materials Data on La3Tb by Materials Project

TbLa3 is Copper-derived structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Tb is bonded to twelve La atoms to form TbLa12 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent TbLa12 cuboctahedra, corners with eight equivalent LaLa8Tb4 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent TbLa12 cuboctahedra, edges with sixteen equivalent LaLa8Tb4 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent TbLa12 cuboctahedra, and faces with fourteen LaLa8Tb4 cuboctahedra. There are four shorter (3.70 Å) and eight longer (3.72 Å) Tb–La bond lengths. There are two inequivalent La sites. In the first La site, La is bonded to four equivalent Tb and eight La atoms to form LaLa8Tb4 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent LaLa8Tb4 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent TbLa12 cuboctahedra, edges with sixteen LaLa8Tb4 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent TbLa12 cuboctahedra, and faces with fourteen LaLa8Tb4 cuboctahedra. There are four shorter (3.70 Å) and four longer (3.72 Å) La–La bond lengths. In the second La site, La is bonded to four equivalent Tb and eight equivalent La atoms to form LaLa8Tb4 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent LaLa8Tb4 cuboctahedra, corners with eight equivalent TbLa12 cuboctahedra, edges with twenty-four LaLa8Tb4 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent TbLa12 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve LaLa8Tb4 cuboctahedra.
