Materials Data on Tm(SiOs)2 by Materials Project
Tm(OsSi)2 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Tm3+ is bonded to eight equivalent Os+1.50- atoms to form distorted edge-sharing TmOs8 hexagonal bipyramids. All Tm–Os bond lengths are 3.17 Å. Os+1.50- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Tm3+ and four equivalent Si atoms. All Os–Si bond lengths are 2.39 Å. Si is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Os+1.50- and one Si atom. The Si–Si bond length is 2.44 Å.
