Materials Data on TbZnSi by Materials Project
TbZnSi is hexagonal omega structure-derived structured and crystallizes in the hexagonal P-6m2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Tb is bonded to six equivalent Zn and six equivalent Si atoms to form a mixture of edge and face-sharing TbZn6Si6 cuboctahedra. All Tb–Zn bond lengths are 3.13 Å. All Tb–Si bond lengths are 3.13 Å. Zn is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to six equivalent Tb and three equivalent Si atoms. All Zn–Si bond lengths are 2.38 Å. Si is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Tb and three equivalent Zn atoms.
