Materials Data on Y3Ru by Materials Project
Y3Ru is Cementite structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Y sites. In the first Y site, Y is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to two equivalent Ru atoms. There are one shorter (2.76 Å) and one longer (2.82 Å) Y–Ru bond lengths. In the second Y site, Y is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Ru atoms. There are a spread of Y–Ru bond distances ranging from 2.87–3.24 Å. Ru is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to eight Y atoms.
