Materials Data on YAlPt by Materials Project
PtYAl crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Y is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Pt and six equivalent Al atoms. There are a spread of Y–Pt bond distances ranging from 2.87–3.12 Å. There are a spread of Y–Al bond distances ranging from 3.08–3.29 Å. Pt is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Y and four equivalent Al atoms. There are a spread of Pt–Al bond distances ranging from 2.61–2.67 Å. Al is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Y and four equivalent Pt atoms.
