Materials Data on BaSrBi3 by Materials Project
BaSrBi3 is Magnesium tetraboride-derived structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnna space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ba is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight Bi atoms. There are a spread of Ba–Bi bond distances ranging from 3.63–3.94 Å. Sr is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight Bi atoms. There are a spread of Sr–Bi bond distances ranging from 3.40–3.67 Å. There are two inequivalent Bi sites. In the first Bi site, Bi is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ba and four equivalent Sr atoms. In the second Bi site, Bi is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Ba and two equivalent Sr atoms.
