Materials Data on YbTmB12 by Materials Project
YbTmB12 is Calcium hexaboride-derived structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Yb3+ is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to twenty-four equivalent B+0.50- atoms. All Yb–B bond lengths are 3.01 Å. Tm3+ is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to twenty-four equivalent B+0.50- atoms. All Tm–B bond lengths are 3.01 Å. B+0.50- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Yb3+, two equivalent Tm3+, and five equivalent B+0.50- atoms. There is one shorter (1.64 Å) and four longer (1.74 Å) B–B bond length.
