Materials Data on TbNi2 by Materials Project
TbNi2 is Cubic Laves structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fd-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Tb is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to twelve equivalent Ni atoms. All Tb–Ni bond lengths are 2.97 Å. Ni is bonded to six equivalent Tb and six equivalent Ni atoms to form a mixture of face, edge, and corner-sharing NiTb6Ni6 cuboctahedra. All Ni–Ni bond lengths are 2.53 Å.
