Materials Data on LaFe6(CoB)6 by Materials Project
LaFe6(CoB)6 crystallizes in the trigonal R-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. La is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to twelve equivalent Fe, six equivalent Co, and six equivalent B atoms. All La–Fe bond lengths are 3.27 Å. All La–Co bond lengths are 3.14 Å. All La–B bond lengths are 3.09 Å. Fe is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent La and four equivalent B atoms. All Fe–B bond lengths are 2.06 Å. Co is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to one La and three equivalent B atoms. There are one shorter (2.10 Å) and two longer (2.12 Å) Co–B bond lengths. B is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to one La, four equivalent Fe, and three equivalent Co atoms.
