Materials Data on HoBr2 by Materials Project
HoBr2 is trigonal omega-like structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal P4_2/mnm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ho is bonded to six equivalent Br atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing HoBr6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 39°. There are four shorter (2.88 Å) and two longer (2.91 Å) Ho–Br bond lengths. Br is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Ho atoms.
