Synthesis and crystal structure of NdFe0.45Ge2 and HoFe0.33Ge2

  • 1. Ames Lab., IA (United States)

Description

The compounds NdFe0.45Ge2 and HoFe0.33Ge2 have been synthesized and studied by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. They crystallize in the space group D2h17-Cmcm of the orthorhombic system with Z=4 in the unit cell: a=4.091 (2) A, b=15.679(7) A, c=3.985(2) A, V=255.6(4) A3 (T=296 K) for HoFe0.33Ge2; and a=4.214(2) A, b=16.455(9) A, c=4.070(2) A, V=282.2(4) A3 (T=296 K) for NdFe0.45Ge2. The compounds exhibit the defect CeNiSi2 structure-type. (orig.)
