Materials Data on Ho5In3 by Materials Project
Ho5In3 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mcm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Ho sites. In the first Ho site, Ho is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent In atoms. All Ho–In bond lengths are 3.24 Å. In the second Ho site, Ho is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five equivalent In atoms. There are a spread of Ho–In bond distances ranging from 3.11–3.58 Å. In is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to nine Ho atoms.
