Materials Data on LuSbPt by Materials Project
PtLuSb is half-Heusler structured and crystallizes in the cubic F-43m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Lu3+ is bonded to four equivalent Pt2- and six equivalent Sb1- atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and face-sharing LuSb6Pt4 tetrahedra. All Lu–Pt bond lengths are 2.83 Å. All Lu–Sb bond lengths are 3.27 Å. Pt2- is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent Lu3+ and four equivalent Sb1- atoms. All Pt–Sb bond lengths are 2.83 Å. Sb1- is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Lu3+ and four equivalent Pt2- atoms.
