Materials Data on Lu6MnBi2 by Materials Project
Lu6MnBi2 crystallizes in the hexagonal P-62m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Lu sites. In the first Lu site, Lu is bonded to two equivalent Mn and two equivalent Bi atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing LuMn2Bi2 tetrahedra. Both Lu–Mn bond lengths are 2.82 Å. Both Lu–Bi bond lengths are 3.21 Å. In the second Lu site, Lu is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to one Mn and four equivalent Bi atoms. The Lu–Mn bond length is 3.15 Å. All Lu–Bi bond lengths are 3.28 Å. Mn is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to nine Lu atoms. Bi is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to nine Lu atoms.
