Materials Data on LiIrRh by Materials Project
LiIrRh is half-Heusler structured and crystallizes in the cubic F-43m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Li is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent Ir and four equivalent Rh atoms. All Li–Ir bond lengths are 2.39 Å. All Li–Rh bond lengths are 2.39 Å. Ir is bonded to four equivalent Li atoms to form IrLi4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent RhLi4 tetrahedra, corners with twelve equivalent IrLi4 tetrahedra, and edges with six equivalent RhLi4 tetrahedra. Rh is bonded to four equivalent Li atoms to form RhLi4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent IrLi4 tetrahedra, corners with twelve equivalent RhLi4 tetrahedra, and edges with six equivalent IrLi4 tetrahedra.
