Materials Data on TaSiRh by Materials Project
TaRhSi crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ta is bonded in a 11-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Rh and five equivalent Si atoms. There are a spread of Ta–Rh bond distances ranging from 2.91–3.00 Å. There are three shorter (2.68 Å) and two longer (2.74 Å) Ta–Si bond lengths. Rh is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Ta and four equivalent Si atoms. There are a spread of Rh–Si bond distances ranging from 2.41–2.47 Å. Si is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Ta and four equivalent Rh atoms.
