Materials Data on Ce(CoAs)2 by Materials Project
Ce(CoAs)2 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ce3+ is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent As3- atoms. All Ce–As bond lengths are 3.16 Å. Co+1.50+ is bonded to four equivalent As3- atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing CoAs4 tetrahedra. All Co–As bond lengths are 2.34 Å. As3- is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Ce3+, four equivalent Co+1.50+, and one As3- atom. The As–As bond length is 2.72 Å.
