Materials Data on LuBiPt by Materials Project
LuPtBi is half-Heusler structured and crystallizes in the cubic F-43m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Lu is bonded to four equivalent Pt and six equivalent Bi atoms to form a mixture of distorted face and corner-sharing LuBi6Pt4 tetrahedra. All Lu–Pt bond lengths are 2.89 Å. All Lu–Bi bond lengths are 3.33 Å. Pt is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent Lu and four equivalent Bi atoms. All Pt–Bi bond lengths are 2.89 Å. Bi is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Lu and four equivalent Pt atoms.
