Materials Data on CeBPt3 by Materials Project
CePt3B is (Cubic) Perovskite structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal P4mm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ce3+ is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to twelve Pt2- atoms. There are a spread of Ce–Pt bond distances ranging from 2.91–3.43 Å. There are two inequivalent Pt2- sites. In the first Pt2- site, Pt2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to four equivalent Ce3+ and two equivalent B3+ atoms. Both Pt–B bond lengths are 2.24 Å. In the second Pt2- site, Pt2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Ce3+ and one B3+ atom. The Pt–B bond length is 2.13 Å. B3+ is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five Pt2- atoms.
