Materials Data on YBPt3 by Materials Project
YPt3B is (Cubic) Perovskite structured and crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Y3+ is bonded to twelve equivalent Pt2- atoms to form YPt12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent YPt12 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent YPt12 cuboctahedra, and faces with eight equivalent BPt6 octahedra. All Y–Pt bond lengths are 3.07 Å. Pt2- is bonded to four equivalent Y3+ and two equivalent B3+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner, edge, and face-sharing PtY4B2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–60°. Both Pt–B bond lengths are 2.17 Å. B3+ is bonded to six equivalent Pt2- atoms to form BPt6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent BPt6 octahedra and faces with eight equivalent YPt12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°.
