Materials Data on Ho3In5 by Materials Project
Ho3In5 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmcm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Ho sites. In the first Ho site, Ho is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to nine In atoms. There are a spread of Ho–In bond distances ranging from 3.09–3.47 Å. In the second Ho site, Ho is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to ten In atoms. There are a spread of Ho–In bond distances ranging from 3.19–3.49 Å. There are three inequivalent In sites. In the first In site, In is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five Ho and six In atoms. There are a spread of In–In bond distances ranging from 3.14–3.31 Å. In the second In site, In is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six Ho and four In atoms. There are two shorter (3.04 Å) and one longer (3.22 Å) In–In bond lengths. In the third In site, In is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to six Ho and four In atoms.
