Materials Data on Nb3Al2Mo3 by Materials Project
Nb3Mo3Al2 crystallizes in the trigonal R32 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Nb is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to two equivalent Mo and four equivalent Al atoms. Both Nb–Mo bond lengths are 2.55 Å. There are two shorter (2.83 Å) and two longer (2.87 Å) Nb–Al bond lengths. Mo is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Nb and four equivalent Al atoms. There are two shorter (2.83 Å) and two longer (2.86 Å) Mo–Al bond lengths. Al is bonded to six equivalent Nb and six equivalent Mo atoms to form a mixture of edge and face-sharing AlNb6Mo6 cuboctahedra.
