Materials Data on Tb6CoTe2 by Materials Project
Tb6CoTe2 crystallizes in the hexagonal P-62m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Tb sites. In the first Tb site, Tb is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to one Co and four equivalent Te atoms. The Tb–Co bond length is 3.42 Å. All Tb–Te bond lengths are 3.24 Å. In the second Tb site, Tb is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Co and two equivalent Te atoms. Both Tb–Co bond lengths are 2.80 Å. Both Tb–Te bond lengths are 3.31 Å. Co is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to nine Tb atoms. Te is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to nine Tb atoms.
