Materials Data on CeAlAu by Materials Project
CeAuAl crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ce is bonded to six equivalent Au and six equivalent Al atoms to form a mixture of face and edge-sharing CeAl6Au6 cuboctahedra. All Ce–Au bond lengths are 3.23 Å. All Ce–Al bond lengths are 3.23 Å. Au is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Ce and three equivalent Al atoms. All Au–Al bond lengths are 2.62 Å. Al is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to six equivalent Ce and three equivalent Au atoms.
