Materials Data on ZrSiIr by Materials Project
ZrIrSi crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Zr is bonded in a 11-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Ir and five equivalent Si atoms. There are a spread of Zr–Ir bond distances ranging from 2.97–3.07 Å. There are three shorter (2.82 Å) and two longer (2.84 Å) Zr–Si bond lengths. Ir is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Zr and four equivalent Si atoms. There are a spread of Ir–Si bond distances ranging from 2.46–2.50 Å. Si is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Zr and four equivalent Ir atoms.
