Low- and high-temperature structures of YbCuBi
Abstract
Abstract A variable temperature single-crystal X-ray diffraction study was undertaken on the intermetallic compound YbCuBi, which undergoes a phase transition at ∼375 K. At low temperatures ( T = 193 K, a = 4.5821(3) Å, c = 7.8107(8) Å; T = 295 K, a = 4.5825(6) Å, c = 7.8597(10) Å), YbCuBi adopts the LiGaGe-type (ordered CaIn 2 -type) structure (Pearson symbol hP 6, space group P 6 3 mc , Z = 2). At high temperatures ( T = 393 K, a = …
