Materials Data on LuMnSi by Materials Project
LuMnSi crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Lu is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Mn and five equivalent Si atoms. There are a spread of Lu–Mn bond distances ranging from 2.94–3.23 Å. There are two shorter (2.86 Å) and three longer (2.91 Å) Lu–Si bond lengths. Mn is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Lu and four equivalent Si atoms. There are a spread of Mn–Si bond distances ranging from 2.45–2.65 Å. Si is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Lu and four equivalent Mn atoms.
