Materials Data on ErSiPt by Materials Project
ErPtSi crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Er is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Pt and six equivalent Si atoms. There are a spread of Er–Pt bond distances ranging from 2.99–3.16 Å. There are a spread of Er–Si bond distances ranging from 2.96–3.15 Å. Pt is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Er and four equivalent Si atoms. There are a spread of Pt–Si bond distances ranging from 2.50–2.70 Å. Si is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Er and four equivalent Pt atoms.
