Materials Data on TmBiPt by Materials Project
TmPtBi is half-Heusler structured and crystallizes in the cubic F-43m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Tm is bonded to four equivalent Pt and six equivalent Bi atoms to form a mixture of distorted face and corner-sharing TmBi6Pt4 tetrahedra. All Tm–Pt bond lengths are 2.90 Å. All Tm–Bi bond lengths are 3.35 Å. Pt is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent Tm and four equivalent Bi atoms. All Pt–Bi bond lengths are 2.90 Å. Bi is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Tm and four equivalent Pt atoms.
