Materials Data on Sb3Mo by Materials Project
MoSb3 is alpha bismuth trifluoride structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Mo3+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to fourteen Sb1- atoms. There are eight shorter (3.07 Å) and six longer (3.55 Å) Mo–Sb bond lengths. There are two inequivalent Sb1- sites. In the first Sb1- site, Sb1- is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent Mo3+ and four equivalent Sb1- atoms. All Sb–Sb bond lengths are 3.07 Å. In the second Sb1- site, Sb1- is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to six equivalent Mo3+ and eight equivalent Sb1- atoms.
