Materials Data on Na2LiDyCl6 by Materials Project
(Na)2LiDyCl6 crystallizes in the cubic Fm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional and consists of eight sodium molecules and one LiDyCl6 framework. In the LiDyCl6 framework, Li1+ is bonded to six equivalent Cl1- atoms to form LiCl6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent DyCl6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°. All Li–Cl bond lengths are 2.52 Å. Dy3+ is bonded to six equivalent Cl1- atoms to form DyCl6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent LiCl6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°. All Dy–Cl bond lengths are 2.61 Å. Cl1- is bonded in a linear geometry to one Li1+ and one Dy3+ atom.
