Materials Data on YbSnRh by Materials Project
YbRhSn crystallizes in the hexagonal P-62m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Yb is bonded in a 11-coordinate geometry to five Rh and six equivalent Sn atoms. There are one shorter (2.99 Å) and four longer (3.03 Å) Yb–Rh bond lengths. There are two shorter (3.19 Å) and four longer (3.34 Å) Yb–Sn bond lengths. There are two inequivalent Rh sites. In the first Rh site, Rh is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Yb and six equivalent Sn atoms. All Rh–Sn bond lengths are 2.80 Å. In the second Rh site, Rh is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Yb and three equivalent Sn atoms. All Rh–Sn bond lengths are 2.75 Å. Sn is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Yb and four Rh atoms.
