Materials Data on BaScIr by Materials Project
BaScIr is half-Heusler structured and crystallizes in the cubic F-43m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ba is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent Sc and four equivalent Ir atoms. All Ba–Sc bond lengths are 2.96 Å. All Ba–Ir bond lengths are 2.96 Å. Sc is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Ba and six equivalent Ir atoms. All Sc–Ir bond lengths are 3.42 Å. Ir is bonded to four equivalent Ba and six equivalent Sc atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and face-sharing IrBa4Sc6 tetrahedra.
