The αIrV Crystal Structure

You can now

• see the structure from several perspectives;
• examine the structure with an external viewer; or
• download the coordinates of the atoms in these pictures in XYZ format.
• visualize the structure (Uses the JMOL Applet)

• This is a distorted version of the CsCl (B2) structure.
• 29 Jan 2009:
  • Although the title once said it, this is not the A14 structure.
  • Removed an extraneous 2 from the second basis vector formula.
  7 Dec 2009:
  • Correct Cartesian coordinates for the V atoms.

• Prototype: IrV
• Pearson Symbol: oC8
• Strukturbericht Designation: none
• Space Group: Cmmm (Cartesian and lattice coordinate listings available)
• Number: 65
• Other Compounds with this Structure: RhV
• Primitive Vectors:

  A1	=	½ a X - ½ b Y
  A2	=	½ a X + ½ b Y
  A3	=	c Z

• Basis Vectors:

  B1	=	- y A1 + y A2 + ½ A3	=	+ y b Y + ½ c Y	(Ir)	(4j)
  B2	=	+ y A1 - y A2 + ½ A3	=	- y b Y + ½ c Y	(Ir)	(4j)
  B3	=	+ x A1 + x A2	=	+ x a X	(V)	(4g)
  B4	=	- x A1 - x A2	=	- x a X	(V)	(4g)
