Materials Data on Ti3Sn by Materials Project
Ti3Sn is alpha bismuth trifluoride structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Ti sites. In the first Ti site, Ti is bonded to four equivalent Ti and four equivalent Sn atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner, edge, and face-sharing TiTi4Sn4 tetrahedra. All Ti–Ti bond lengths are 2.86 Å. All Ti–Sn bond lengths are 2.86 Å. In the second Ti site, Ti is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent Ti and six equivalent Sn atoms. All Ti–Sn bond lengths are 3.31 Å. Sn is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to fourteen Ti atoms.
