Description

Below room temperature the hexagonal Er dimer compound is found to transform to a chemical structure with low symmetry which may be described at 5 K by a triclinic unit cell similar to the hexagonal one, but with lattice parameters a=8.283 A, b=8.286 A, c=20.971 A, α=90.2o, β=91.6o and γ≅120o.
